When Dharma falls silent, prophecy awakens.
Treta Yuga is dying. Forests burn, sages are hunted, and Rakshasa legions march under Lanka’s banner. Into this darkness walks an exiled prince—Ram of Ayodhya. Stripped of crown and kingdom, he longs only for peace with Sita and Lakshman. But destiny has other plans.
For upon his shoulders rests Kodanda—the eternal bow of prophecy, spoken of in the Anantshastra Likhit:
“When Dharma trembles, the bow awakens and Vishnu walks again.”
Against Khara, Dushan, and their fourteen-thousand Rakshasa army, Ram’s exile becomes apocalypse. Each arrow loosed resounds with judgment. Each battle fought is prophecy unfolding. The world sees not merely a man, but Vishnu cloaked in mortal form.
This is not yet the war with Ravana. This is the thunder before the storm—the moment when the forests of Dandakaranya first whispered: Vishnu has returned.
Kodanda: The Rise of Vishnu—where myth becomes memory, and prophecy becomes destiny.
