Revathy,
You have chosen a good topic but it appears that you gave up on most important event of this story. Stories as told by loosing party make interesting read. Story lines from the point of view of Karna, Drona & Ravana are already published. You should add more content to this story too.

thanks

Sorry if my comment gets posted twice. I wasn`t sure if I clicked on Submit or on Cancel. I really liked this Revathy. Seeing events through Manthara`s eyes was a fresh take on a familiar story. The writing was good as well. However, this might be too ambitious for a short story. It would be awesome as a novel so you can explore all the intricacies and we can get to know the characters through the eyes of an oft-maligned character :-). I loved reading this.
