Disgusted, Bindusara leaves the boy to his mother, the beautiful Subhadragi, who names him 'Ashoka emperor. Ashoka's birth is but a first step in the struggle he will go through to fulfil his destiny.

But his rise has been noted by many, who want to end the threat to Susima's succession once and for all...
