We return to the narrative this episode and to the house of Balban as his son simply refuses to become Sultan, leaving that responsibility to his own young son. What follows is drama of the first order, full of debauchery, tragedy, rebellion and betrayal. In the end, a new dynasty seizes power and begins to make the first inroads south of the Vindhyas.
