Raja Burton was deceived and murdered by king Gordon, at which point the young 16 years old Harsha swore to take the revenge.


Harsha waged war against King Gorden and won the battle. Harsha has consequently crowned the new ruler. He first united the kingdoms of Thanisir and Kannuaj and went on to bring Bihar, Bengal and Odhisa under his command.
