KRISHNA'S VOW

I would, at all costs, have prevented this destructive play of dice. When Sakuni was cheating you, I was fighting King Salva who hadbesieged my city.

It was only after I had defeated him that I came to know of the game of dice and the subsequent sordid story.

It grieves me that I am not able to remove your sorrows immediately but you know, some water must be lost before a broken dam is restored."

Then Krishna took leave and returned to Dwaraka with Subhadra, the wife of Arjuna, and their child, Abhimanyu.

Dhrishtadyumnawent back to Panchala taking with him the sons of Draupadi.
