Crossword-Solution: MINDON 6 letters, 1 clue 🏆 scrabble score: 9

And this boy, Mindon, was beautiful and strong as his mother, pale olive of face, with the dark and crafty eyes of the cunning Indian traders, with black hair and a body straight, strong and long in the leg for his years--apt at the beginnings of bow, sword and spear--full of promise, if the promise was only words and looks.

Suddenly, lifting the hangings of the palace gateway, before them stood the mother of Mindon, the Lady Dwaymenau, pale as wool, having heard the shout of her boy, so that the two Queens faced each other, each holding the shoulders of her son, and the ladies watched, mute as fishes, for it was years since these two had met.

But, Mindon, your true son, flew in upon him and in a great fight he slit the beast’s throat with the knife you gave him.

Then, fixing her eyes with power upon Mindon, she bade him, a pure child, see for her in its clearness.

The boys played together sometimes, Mindon tyrannizing and cruel, Ananda fearing and complying, broken in spirit.
