'Ramayan:Legend of the warrior Prince' is a visually stunning reimagining of India’s timeless epic — where duty, love, and destiny collide. Prince Ram through a world of divine battles, moral dilemmas, and cosmic purpose as he embarks on an odyssey to uphold dharma. This graphic retelling captures the grandeur of ancient India and the humanity of its heroes. Witness the saga that shaped civilization — a tale of courage, sacrifice, and the eternal struggle between light and darkness.
I didn't understand, is the horse got killed for Yagya? Because in Rig ved it is written that no yagya will be called complete if animals gets harmed in it.
@Indra: I can't talk about Rig Ved, as I have not read it. Valmiki Ramayan Bal Khand Sarg 14 verse 30 onwards gives a description of horse, and other sacrificial offerings, with the process used to perform the yagna. I am sure you can easily read it on many sites online.
@KickingShadowyWerewolf: I’ll admit I wasn’t aware that schwa is still prevalent in some southern languages—Bharat truly is diverse. I’ve seen usages like Ramayanam and Ramam and will read up more on it. That said, I’ll keep the spelling as is in the comic since it feels more natural to me.
Diacritics would complicate typing furture, so I’ll be leaving them out. Thanks for the valuable info.
@Janardana: That's a great suggestion and will add to the weight of the words spoken. However, it will add to the complication as many fonts don't go well with IAST and also it will also increase the time of typing considerably, therefore I think it best to keep them out.

Slight quibble: Samskrita has a schwa at the end of a word; it would be Anga instead of Ang for example

@KickingShadowyWerewolf: Modern day Indian languges do not use schwa in them, therefore I have deliberately kept it out for the comic.

@author
can we use IAST for unambiguous pronunciation?
Ṛṣyaśṛṅgab for example.
or ITRANS maybe.

@Janardana: Ṛṣyaśṛṅga

Fair enough, though I'd note that some languages do have schwa - Odia, Kannada, etc.
My two cents - don't use diacritics, it would really clutter up the text bubbles
