Sometime during the early colonization era in India, a group of nomads, driven from their homes, discover a valley hidden among the mountains in the far east. With some help, they banish the natives who lived there and created a home for themselves, which they called Aitanpur. As decades pass by, their colony shapes into a flourishing and prosperous self-sustaining society. However they could not desist the evils, which follow, from creeping into the fabric of their society. A tyrant becomes a landlord, and leaves behind a legacy, which is succeeded by three brothers allured to power. Young men looking for a path to redemption fall prey to sinister intentions. People continue to live in anarchy even as the nobility is hounded by a rebel at large. Will Aitanpur manage to persevere and preserve, or will it crumble into the same dust it emerged from?What would be that one story that would redefine the virtues the place and its people stood for?Adapted from a widely known chronicle of the Greek mythology, this is essentially a story of love in every form - greed, hope, passion and lust. When love collides, what ensues is war. And once the war ends, what's left behind in the ashes isn't just a tall tale of Gods and kings. It leaves behind a saga that weaves itself into various forms and shapes and continues to spread like fire, until it had emerged into a legend for all times to come.The characters that form the narrative, the traits that come to define them and their actions reflect the most fundamental of the human emotions. And hence they remain relevant even to this day and time, so much so that the name of this novel intentionally attempts to take a sarcastic jibe at it.
