| (Arjuna and the Gandava (the divine bow)) |
It is interesting to see how Sita willingly follows Rama into exiles with no regrets while Draupadi very much shows her dislike of her fate and continues to weep about what she use to have. I loved reading about how Arjuna came to be able to live on air alone. It really showed the audience how much determination he held as a person. Gandava, the divine bow, sounds like it would be an interesting component to possibly include in my story.
Indra: King of gods
Varuna: God of waters
Yama: King of the dead
Kuber: Lord of treasures
For some reason, I was very surprised to see the epic mention a car (Indra’s great car). Karna sacrificed his invincibility, his armor and his earrings, to Indra in return for an invincible dart that could kill a single person. However, if the dart was used when Karna still had weapons or if he was not at the breaking point, the dart would kill him instead. I wonder why Bhima left five locks of Jayadratha’s hair instead of cutting in all off. As I read more and more, Draupadi continues to reveal herself as a bad person. She is even called the dark princess in the story. I wonder what she will do in the future. I really appreciate Karna because he still chose to stay loyal to the people he called his friends even after finding out that he was the child of Queen Kunti. I am intrigued by Ghatokatcha, who has the power to change his shape and create illusions.
