The Silent Wells III. The Law of Reversal

When the wells are sealed, the keepers exchange their silence as offering.
One speaks only when the other dreams, and through this alternation the words continue, endless yet unseen.

The script of their order is never carved nor bound. It is traced upon the surface of still pools, read only by the reflection of the reader’s face.

The last line of the right column ends with a faded invocation, nearly lost:

“Let the depths forget what the stars have told, until the soil speaks once more.”

The Hidden Empire of Kirata

Kirata—the drowned kingdom—returns as both refuge and symbol. Guarded by Minik, reclaimed by Ambrose Bierce and the Shugonath’uge, it becomes the final bastion of balance in a collapsing multiverse.

From its Fire Shrine rises the new Tree of Life, watered by karmic memory. Here, Long Huan and her son Yǒnggǎn take refuge, and from its soil, the Rose of None blooms again.

Esther and the Phoenix Crown

Esther begins as a linguist, a dreamwalker. But when she dons the Phoenix Crown, she becomes something more—half woman, half flame, the guardian of continuity.

Her magic stabilizes history, weaving protective loops through Europe’s shattered dreams during WWII. But every time she saves a city, she fades a little more from existence. In Hiroshima, she channels the bomb’s psychic scream into a Mandala Loop, storing its energy within the final Memory Shrine.

The Shrines of the World: Where Memory Breathes

The Shrines are not temples—they are anchor points between worlds. There are Shrines of Fire, Water, Earth, Air, and Ether—each regulating the karmic and dimensional equilibrium of Earth.

When Long Feng reawakens them, imbalance spreads: mass hysteria, miracles, time-loops. The Qi’tet must find and rebind each Shrine before the network collapses.

Their journey—from the deserts of Mongolia to the ruins of Prague—forms the backbone of The Maharajagar’s mythic geography.

Long Feng: The Man Who Would Be Chaos

Long Feng began as Wen’s cousin—a brilliant mind twisted by ambition. But through rituals forbidden since Atlantis, he became host to the King in Yellow, ruler of Carcosa, the dream-city of decay.

His goal is terrifyingly pure: to dissolve all order, to let entropy reign. As fascist empires rise, Long Feng moves behind them, feeding on fear, binding leaders to his design. To him, World War II is not politics—it’s alchemy. The blood of nations fuels his rebirth.

Alec and Millie: The Dreamers Who Started It All

Before the shrines, before the war, there was simply Alec and Millie—a journalist and his wife in neutral New York, 1914. What begins as a cultural prank—swapping museum bones in protest—becomes the spark that reawakens ancient orders.

Millie, touched by voodoo and prophecy, carries twins destined for divine possession. Alec, haunted by what he sees through the lens of history, becomes the chronicler of things no mortal should know. Their love story anchors The Maharajagar, a reminder that even in cosmic wars, the smallest bonds hold the universe together.

The Cintamani: The Stone That Dreams

The Cintamani is no mere jewel—it’s the axis of chaos. Forged before memory, shattered during the fall of the first city, it pulses beneath the history of The Maharajagar like a heartbeat. Its shards distort time, amplify karma, and lure humanity toward cataclysmic convergence.

Long Feng seeks to dominate it. The Qi’tet seek to contain it. Yet even broken, the Cintamani reshapes fate. It is a chaos attractor, magnifying intent—good or evil—beyond measure.

When World War II erupts, it is the Cintamani that hums beneath the bombs. Hiroshima is not merely an explosion—it is the final echo of the gem’s shatter-song.

Meet the Qi’tet: Five Souls, One Destiny

At the centre of The Maharajagar stands the Qi’tet—a group bound not by choice, but by cosmic memory.

Together they face Long Feng—the reincarnated King in Yellow—whose hunger for the shattered artifact Cintamani threatens to rewrite existence.

Each of the five channels an element: earth, fire, water, air, and ether. Their rituals are not spells, but acts of balance. Their war is not for victory, but for remembrance.

Hidden War Beneath History: Enter the World of The Maharajagar

History, as we know it, is only half the story. The Maharajagar reveals the unseen war that shaped the 20th century—a cosmic struggle hidden beneath the headlines of World War I and II. When journalist Alec Bannon and his wife Millie stumble into an ancient conspiracy involving voodoo, Taoist alchemy, and forgotten gods, they awaken powers that refuse to stay buried.

From the crowded streets of 1914 New York to the secret temples of Tibet, the series unfolds as a mythic retelling of modern history—one where energy, memory, and karma drive the tides of war. At its heart stands the Qi’tet, five awakened beings linked by fate, struggling to hold reality together as chaos rises.

This is not just alternate history—it’s metaphysical history. Every battle, every ritual, every sacrifice echoes across timelines.

The Legacy of the Maharajagar

The Maharajagar is a war story, a love story, and a mythic saga — but it is also a meditation on legacy. Across five volumes, characters fight not simply to survive, but to preserve meaning, memory, and the possibility of renewal.
In the aftermath of Carcosa’s sealing and Long Feng’s final defeat, the surviving members of the Qi’tet go their separate ways. Some fade into myth; others remain in the world, quietly guarding the boundaries between dream and waking. Channelle’s sphinx-children become living archives of karmic memory. R’luh wanders the Dream Web, chronicling in reverse. Sheeva stands sentinel at Shambhala. Esther disappears into the whispers of history, leaving only her spectral flower.
What remains is a fragile peace — and the knowledge that this was not the first war of its kind, nor will it be the last. But for now, the shrines stand, the dream-web holds, and humanity carries forward the seeds of remembrance.
Readers are left with a haunting truth: history is not written in stone, but in the choices we make — and the stories we keep alive.
