Answer:
Aouda (औद / Auda), a character in Around the World in Eighty Days by Jules Verne, is an Indian princess accompanied by Phileas Fogg and Passepartout. The daughter of a Bombay Parsi merchant, she was married against her will to the old raja of Bundelkhand. At the death of her husband, she is about to be sacrificed by Hindu monks as a sati at her husband's funeral pyre.[1] Upon learning the circumstances of the sati and how this is all against Aouda's will, Fogg and company intervene and rescue her.
