The team soon exited out of the cave. After reaching Aramal village-for it was too dangerous to discuss the topic in the middle of the forest, they entered Adinath's cabin.
"We have studied and protected this secret for generations. That's why we have such extensive Sanskrit knowledge, and the body of a warrior. You never know when you may need it.
Our ancestor, Adiratha, used the mashaal to lead our warriors towards the battlefield, in the middle of a dark and terrifying night. In honor of his courage and bravery, we follow a similar ceremony of lighting the mashaal. In fact, all the logs in the pile of timbre, were actually torches that earlier chieftains use.
It is a tradition that we continue to follow, even when my son becomes the village head. So, soldiers. Have you noticed any similarity between the events?"
Ishar got the childish feeling of having been asked a question by a teacher.
However, it was true.
He had observed some creepily heart-stopping similarities. Gargi spoke in a small voice,
"Adinath, we think …that the a-aliens might be back again. Some weeks ago, we noticed a celestial body-or so we thought- on our radar. No other person detected it. It has been moving in a weird way, and is currently stationary in Earth's orbit, just outside India's airspace."
Venkatesh nodded. "I thought so, when I saw your blueprints and collected data. Just so you know, you guys have our full support in defeating the aliens, we don't want those slimy creatures near our country again."
Ishar nodded gratefully.
"We will take your leave now-", Naren said. "-it's twelve in the night and I think we all deserve a good sleep. Thank you so much Adinath for your help."
Adinath smiled. The two then bidded the soldiers goodbye.
That night, Ishar couldn't sleep. He gazed through the window of his bed, towards a particularly blue radiance- or a spaceship as it seemed now.
He remembered the night he had thought of it as a shooting star, even made a wish, but the reality was far from his understanding.
In fact, it gave an even bigger terror to Ishar, knowing that there was an alien spaceship out there, having the ability to strike at any given time- and they had no idea how to defend it.
He had to call the General and inform him about the secret occurrence.
He also needed Tanik Sehwag on the waters now- as there was a huge possibility that the dimanium was somewhere in the Arabian Sea.
But where could they develop advanced weapons like the ancient ones for their soldiers?
An idea so brilliant came to Ishar's mind that he sat upright on his bed.
He could use the blueprints of the old weapons, to create new ones! He hastily took out his phone and called the General.
