Shifting their stares towards the owner of the divine voice, everyone found Lord Kartikeya had appeared in front of them.

Joining hands in his respect, everyone was hoping for the best solution for the current situation.

"I didn't get my answer till now. I want to guide Swastika on her path of being a worthy queen of Shaurya mandal," Lord Kartikeya reminded everyone of his declaration.

"You are the best guardian for my child, but.........," Vasudev gulped down the pain of upcoming separation.

"I understand a father's heart. The situation isn't too normal to get accepted by you this easily, but I assure you that Swastika will cherish her growth, and will strive to get better, all blissfully," Lord Kartikeya assured Vasudev, making imagine the scope of aspirations his daughter was going to get.

"I have a request to you before I can be graced with your guidance," Swastika joined hands to Lord Kartikeya who nodded at her to express her heart out to him.

"I wish to be trained on the earth, being connected to you, spiritually. I have the chance of being at heaven which is the dream of each living being, but I don't want my family to cry for me. I can't be a better person, burdening them in any way," Swastika side glanced at her family who had nothing except silence to reciprocate her.

"I know that training needs an ambiance where emotions have the least space to interfere. So, I have chosen to be at Mathura during my training period. There, I will have the scope of implementing my training while serving the abandoned land of my clan," the idea suddenly came across her mind, supporting her reason to be on the earth.

"So noble thought, my dear. I know the pain of those hearts who have to sacrifice their children for greater good. I am pleased with the way you have found," Lord Kartikeya remembered mata Parvati who had to yearn for him for years.

"I guess I have found the right way. I hope this distance will help us to mend our distanced bonding. Seeking forgiveness and permission to leave from all of you," Swastika turned towards her family with joined hands, discarding the short eye lock session with them.

"I am surrendering myself to your guidance, Guruvar. What's the first order for me?" Folding her hands, Swastika was waiting to get the first order from her teacher.

"Bide farewell to your present at here. A new path is waiting for you," he replied.

"I have talked to everyone except bhratashri and Subhi. I would like to talk to them before I leave," saying so, Swastika walked towards Kanha and Subhadra.

"Subhi, don't be sad for anything. I have no complain for you," wiping Subhadra's tears, Swastika embraced her pouring all her emotions.

"Has difference entered into in between us, Jiji? Why did you mention me as great? I am not such great person," Subhadra didn't want a factor like greatness which was the identity of her family to be a difference in between them.

"You are great, and I am proud of that. I don't have any objection over that, but I don't want your greatness to be ignored, to be misinterpreted. That's why I want to announce something," Swastika too didn't mean to show Subhadra's greatness in a dark shade.

"I announce that my family isn't universal. If anyone ever tries to interfere in bonding of my family then that person won't be welcomed by me. If society doesn't consider me a good person on this basis then I will never wish to be certified as a good person," her firm voice was followed by changed pace of air which had increased its pace, suddenly.

"Seeking your permission to leave, bhratashri. I have become bad in your eyes. Your bad sister is going away from your goal of greater good," with folded hands, Swastika stood in front of Kanha.

"You are my sister, and always will remain my sister. The prefix bad can never be added to that. You had reacted according to human emotions. I care about those, and I admire those," Kanha parted Swastika's hands to get a hold on those.

"You are a good sister, and are going to be a great sister," his hold grew stronger while wishing her, looking into her eyes.

"I know you will yet want to say that take care of everyone. It's my time," releasing her hands slowly, she walked towards Lord Kartikeya.

She held his extended hand, took a last glance at her family, and got disappeared with the Lord.
