"Mahamahim you are not going to say anything about this?" Kunti asked.

Her five sons and Vidura were also present there.

"What is there for me to say Kunti? Destiny has played its game and we must go with the tide" Bhisma replied.

"But she just broke her marriage all so suddenly"

'And fair enough she was. These 5 sons of Pandu have failed her as she rightly said and it was Angraj who had the courage to protect her when we all were sitting there silently. It was only Angraj karn who spoke up for her when we could have to but we did not"

A part of Kunti was filled with pride at her eldest son but another sorrowful for the plight of her five younger sons.

"In fact we should be grateful to Angraj Karn for acting when he did and stopping Duryodhan before limits were crossed" Vidura spoke up.

"But he is now going to marry Panchali" Arjun said quietly.

"And very generous of him too. He has saved her from a deplorable plight you all created for her." Bhisma chided him. He was still angry with the Pandava brothers.
