0% Approval Rating: No one aside from the priests really seem to like Emperor Chandra, as he demands complete obedience but offers only scraps in return for this, even aside from his violent zealotry about religion, which results in him burning many women alive as his human sacrifices.Malini, Priya and many more are soon swept into this greater building conflict. A war is prophesied between them and the mothers, the Parajati goddesses. The yaksa return to Ahiranya, and demand worship from the Ahirani as they once received-or else. While the army of Malini stalls at the maze fort in Saketa, which never once has been taken by an enemy, larger forces come into play. Bhumika, meanwhile, has begun to govern the freed Ahiranya. Nonetheless, they are undeterred and grow deeper in love. Her relationship with Priya grows as well, the women becoming closer though with suspicion from some followers of Malini who distrust Ahirani, especially those with magic. Chandra pushes back, though, using magical fire that stals her advance, burning far too many of her soldiers alive. As more vassals of his switch sides to her, the conflict grows. Gathering an army, she has driven his forces out of Ahiranya.
Malini has rebelled against her brother, Emperor Chandra. The Oleander Sword is the second novel in The Burning Kingdoms by Tasha Suri, released 2022.
