Inside the princess, a conflict was going on between the energy of Prakashpunj and demonic energy.
Sometimes the light energy would dominate, and sometimes the demonic energy would try to take control over Princess Ratri.
Because of this, her health would sometimes deteriorate and sometimes suddenly become normal.
But no one was able to understand the reason behind all this.
One day, Princess Ratri was resting in her chamber when Kumar came to meet her.
"Greetings, Ratri.
May I talk to you about something?"
"Yes, go ahead."
"Ratri… do you remember Prince Susim?"
Ratri thinks to herself—
"How does he know that I know Prince Susim?
So does this Ratri also know Prince Susim?"
"Kumar, I don't even remember my own past.
How could I possibly know any Prince Susim?
By the way, who is he?"
"Prince Susim is the prince of Tuluv Lok.
And you were secretly married to him through a Gandharva marriage."
"Can you take me to meet him?"
Kumar thinks—
"If Ratri meets Prince Susim, maybe her memory will return.
I should take her to Tuluv Lok and make them meet."
"That would be best."
"Of course, Ratri. Come, I will take you to Tuluv Lok."
In Tuluv Lok, Prince Susim still hasn't forgotten Sanjh.
He remains lost in her memories.
Kumar arrives with Ratri and says—
"Greetings, Susim."
"Kumar!
Weren't you searching for Princess Ratri?
Then how did you return so quickly?"
"Because I found her."
"What?!"
"Yes.
Ratri, come out."
"Look, Susim—our Ratri."
Seeing her, Prince Susim becomes extremely happy and hugs her.
For a moment, he feels the touch of Sanjh…
but because of the mask, he cannot recognize her.
Seeing them embrace, Kumar feels uncomfortable and separates them—
"Hey, what are you doing?
Alright, reunion done.
Susim, Ratri is our closest friend.
So it's our shared responsibility to bring back her memory.
Until her memory returns, she will stay here with us."
"But Kumar, if King Takshak finds out that Ratri is here, will he allow her to stay?"
"Don't worry about that.
King Takshak has changed completely.
He loves Ratri so much now that if she asks for his life,
he would offer it to her without hesitation."
"That's a good thing."
"Yes, it is.
But come on, I'm hungry. Let's go eat something.
You must be hungry too, right, Ratri?"
"Yes."
"Good, let's arrange food."
After eating, both Kumar and Prince Susim try different methods to restore Ratri's memory.
But none of their attempts work.
Tired, they say—
"That's enough for today.
We'll try again tomorrow.
It's evening now, let's rest."
After dinner, all three go to their rooms to sleep.
But Ratri cannot sleep.
She gets up and goes to Prince Susim's chamber.
Seeing him, she feels intense anger.
She tries to use her energy to behead him.
But due to her inability to control her powers,
and the ongoing conflict between light and demonic energy within her—
When she attacks, instead of harming Susim,
the energy of Prakashpunj enters into him.
And since Susim is bound to Kumar,
that energy flows from Susim into Kumar's body.
Kumar is capable of handling that energy,
so it forms a sphere within him and settles there.
"Even after all this effort, why am I unable to harm Prince Susim?
He took away my entire family.
He hurt my people.
I cannot forgive him.
Only by taking his life can I bring justice to them.
If not today… someday I will succeed."
Morning arrives.
Everyone gets busy with their work.
Suddenly, Kumar rushes to Prince Susim, wrapped in a blanket, shouting.
Ratri is also present there.
"What happened, Kumar?!
Why are you like this?
Is everything alright?"
Kumar removes the blanket—
"Look, Susim! What has happened to me!"
Kumar's stomach has swollen because of the energy sphere inside him.
"What…
What is this?!!!"
Susim laughs—
"This is why I always tell you not to overeat!
Look what has happened to you.
It looks like you're about to become a mother!"
"Don't make fun of me, Susim!
Find out what's wrong with me!"
Still laughing, Susim says—
"Why are you panicking so much?
I'm here. Even if you are going to be a mother,
I'll take full care of the child!"
Kumar, getting angry—
"If you won't help, fine! I'm leaving!"
Susim holds his hand—
"Alright, I was just teasing you.
Come, let's go to the healer."
When they reach the healer, he examines Kumar and says—
"This…
How is this possible?!!!
This cannot happen…
Impossible."
