Kalith finds himself stranded and captured in an unknown land. Little does he know that he is a phasor and has accidentally travelled back in time. A series of strange and curious events progress as he gets rescued by a man who takes him to a hidden Gurukul, which is home to eight other gifted students who collectively are called The King’s Nine. He must learn to control his ‘phasing’ to return to his time. He embarks on a life-altering journey, trying to learn the ways of the Gurukul as he befriends the others and tries to learn how to discipline himself and amplify and manipulate his powers, all the while being unaware that there was a prophecy made many, many years ago in the same land that he is destined to fulfill.

The book, though fiction, follows an authentic timeline as it tells the story of the two remarkable grandchildren of Rao Duda, Meera, and Jaimal. Meera was a gifted child, recognized for her intellectual brilliance and piety from her childhood. Her devotion to Lord Krishna was intense and never changed, even though she was married to Bhojraj, the son of Maharana Sanga. The book traces her life until she reaches Dwarka and is finally absorbed by her lord. Jaimal, on the other hand, remained constantly at war, struggling to preserve his kingdom against powerful forces ranged against it. The constant struggle against Marwar finally leads to the destruction of Merta with the curtain coming down with Jaimal indomitably leading the defense of Chittor against Akbar. Teeming with characters well known in history, the book offers a slice of it in painful though valorous detail. Despite their tragedy, the Mertias are a force to reckon with but as the Authors put it, in the 16th Century they created their own Camelot which rose and fell within three generations.
