100 Battles To Return Home : The Author's Promise

Garima Arora. A 26 year old, bookish nerd from today's Mumbai loved spicy snacks, stories, and staying awake past midnight. Suddenly, her eyes open in a place born from her own imagination.

She wrote a fantasy world from scratch and accidentally woke up inside it.

Now an entire kingdom believes she is the Saintess chosen by the Goddess. The heroes she invented are real people with real feelings. The Devil Lords she half-wrote at 2am are actually coming. And the world she built in three sleepless days is held together with plot holes, wishful thinking, and increasingly desperate improvisation.

Her divine prophecies? Hindi slang she panicked into.

Her holy hymns? Bollywood songs she half-remembered.

Her sacred wisdom? She wrote this story. She knows how it ends.

Except she's starting to realize — it isn't ending the way she wrote it.

The story keeps surprising her.

And not in the good way.

One hundred battles. One promise. One girl quietly grieving a home she's terrified she'll never see again.
She's laughing. She's managing. She's fine.
She is not fine.
