The daughter of the king of the neighbouring country (Chapter 018)

Role: princess · First appears: Chapter XVIII

In Chapter XVIII, the king of the neighbouring country wished to give his daughter to Ksheman·kara, but he refused marriage until he had acquired wealth and asked permission to go to sea. Next morning, at the midst of the city, she chose him by throwing him a crown of flowers and declaring, “This man is my husband.”

When Ksheman·kara had lost his eyes, she affirmed her fidelity, and one eye was restored. After he affirmed that he bore no malice toward Pāpan·kara, his other eye was restored. The king then gave his daughter to Ksheman·kara as his wife.
