她是印度史詩《摩羅衍那》裡護駕有功的王妃，也是放逐皇子的惡毒繼母。這次，換她來說自己的故事。Vaishnavi Patel重磅出道作，以吉迦伊視角重述這位背負惡名的奇女子憑藉勇氣與韌性，抵抗命運洪流的不凡人生。Before she was cast as Indian mythology's most jealous queen, she had her own story....The only daughter of the kingdom of Kekaya, Kaikeyi is raised on stories about the might and benevolence of the gods: how they churned the vast ocean to obtain the nectar of immortality, how they vanquish evil and ensure the land of Bharath prospers, and how they offer the devout and the wise powerful boons. Yet she watches as her father unceremoniously banishes her mother, listens as her own worth is reduced to how great a marriage alliance she can secure. And when she calls upon the gods for help, they never seem to hear.Desperate for some measure of independence, she turns to the texts she once read with her mother and discovers a magic that is hers alone. With this power, Kaikeyi transforms herself from an overlooked princess into a warrior, diplomat, and most-favored queen, determined to carv
