 Posted: Mon Oct 31, 2005 11:54 am Post subject: Prince Rajan! from my " Come What May" Fanfic |
 |
|
Jasmine was on her way back and there was this young prince standing inside the doorway. He was tall, dark hair, blue eyes and a great fashion sense in clothing. His garbs were in royal blue and white that looked greatly on silk. Jasmine looked at him and was speechless by the way he stood.
Yay!  I finally got it to post with the picture. This is Prince Rajan from my story " Come What May" story if you want to read it. Click on the link below. There are more pictures on this story if you want to read more. Thank you Adiba for your hard work and your dedication. Your talent is greatly appreciated.

Ah... er... I'm available.
He looks quite handsome, though your picture's a bit small. Somehow, he makes me think of a merging between Aladdin and Mozenrath. I love his outfit, too.

| Lovely drawing. You have the style down well. Just one question, though: They're in the middle-east; that doesn't leave a lot of possibilities for blue eyes. So where is he from, exactly, that would land him with that eyecolor, genetically? |

Prince Rajan. Funny that you should ask that. If he's like across the way and the sea separates his city and Agrabah. Read my story. Yeah, it would be genetic. I don't know just because of an Middle Eastern descent doesn't mean you have to have a certain eye color. I always wondered why Sadira has green eyes if she's from Agrabah.. My friends Dad is from the Middle eastern descent and his eyes are blue. Do you really want me trace down Rajan ancestry? |

Why is Prince Rajan's eyes are blue?
Okay, the city of Maharajah is across the sea from Agrabah. Maharajah is a big port city for the country of Egypt. Since Egypt was under attacks of the Roman Empire rule. They was alot of mixing involved. Rajan's mother was half Roman. Her father's family own land in Italy . For a promise to expand and own property. She was arranged to be married with the Prince of Maharajah. ( Rajan's father) For the city Majarajah feared the romans taking over. They thought it would be a war tactic to use the land in Italy in case of major war. |

Me again o.O And please don't take it the wrong way when I point stuff out like this. A writer, if anything, has to be always ready to revise when needed. You might want to pick a different name for the city. The word, Maharajah is a word that originated in India, which is in a completely different direction from Egypt. It's the word for a Prince or a King in Hindu culture, higher in station than a Rajah.
Also, historically, and I could be wrong, but if Greece is in its prime (as described in the crossover episode of Hercules, and as described by mechanikles), then Rome isn't occupying Egypt at the time that the Aladdin series takes place. As far as I know, there is no Roman Empire yet. |

It's just a story that is made up in my mind. I was watching Moulin Rouge and mixed it to make an ending happy. It doesn't have to be 100 % no shadow of the doubt true. Just like the city of Agrabah and the events that happened in the movie. Was not 100% accurate that went along with the History. In fact knows exactly what time era Aladdin actually is. There's also a thread in here called " Funny conjunctions oin where Agrabah could be". It's a proven fact that before the development of Arabia around the 7th Century. The area in what we consider to Arabia was nowhere to be in the 7th Century map. There were Isreal, Jordan, Syria etc etc. Later in the 1st C.E. There were parts of Arabia and Egypt that were claimed by the Roman empire. Honestly, Greece and Rome did exist with one another. They're weren't very chummy with one another. "Troy", "Homer", I mean where did Mechanikles come from ? He was in his Roman get up. In during the episode of " Hercules and the Arabian Knight", Herc was just a teenager/ hero in training and we don't know if the Aladdin was already King or if Aladdin had already claimed the throne. SOOOOO, I just made up Prince Rajan's history because you ask where the eyes came from. It was based on information that I learned in World History Class. Yes, Maharajah (it's a cool word so I put it in ) is not real. It's a make up city just like Agrabah. Isn't funny that there's a city called "Agra" in India ?

One thing I forgot to add. Julius Ceasar and Cleopatra were at Aladdin and Jasmine's wedding in KoT.
Genie : Oh! Look! There's Cleopatra and Ceasar and they're bringing a salad. |

There's a major difference between making a city, like Agrabah (not to mention Getzistan and Quarkistan) and centering their events in that area, and then making a city and twisting history around (without parody) to fit the story.
Cleopatra and Caesar were figures that Genie conjured. I mean, think about it; Moses was there, too, when he was doing that whole thing.
Also, Mechanikles is greek. Hence his title "Greatest of the Great Greek Geniuses". Yes, Rome and Greece existed at that point in time. However, the empire was not yet what it became later.
I'm sticking with what I said about the name. There's no reason why there would be a city in Egypt with an Indian name.
Also, I'm not denying this is something you made up. However, I'm doing what most serious writers and critics do; I'm analyzing what I've seen so far and constructively criticizing.
Was there a reason for quoting your post three times or was that a message board error? |
