VASAVAMBA'S CONVICTION

Of the people who reacted adversely to the king's decision,  Kusumamba stood-first. She deplored it, but bemoaning said that Vishnu Vardhan's recent military conquests and his invincible forces would wipe out their petty vassal state in a trice, and enmity with such mighty emperor would be detrimental; the same time she was unwilling to give Vasavamba to him in marriage. She suggested that her marriage with some suitable local groom at once would solve the problem and implored her Lord to make arrangements for instant solemnization. 

But it was resented,  as it would lead to unforeseen catastrophe and end in annihilation of whole state and people enmasse;  for, the power-mad Kamapisachi's huhger would be appeased only with the sight of heaps ashes of all belonging to his opponents, if contrary takes place. Kusuma Sreshti's foresight confirmed this.
