INDRAPRASTH

As per the orders of Indra, a phenomenal and grand palace was made by Vishwakarma in no time. It was indeed an architectural marvel of its own, worthy to rival the palace of Indra in heaven.

Right now all were present in the common room, as Krishna wanted to discuss important things with them.

"Jyesht Bhrata, how do you like your Karm-bhoomi ?" Krishna asked.

"My Karm-bhoomi is your grace. It is all thanks to you." Yudhishthir said.

"No Jyesht, no one's grace can be anyone's Karm-bhoomi. Man has to break the rocks of his Karm bhoomi by himself with hardwork. You have established you kingdom Maharaj. Now think about protecting it." Krishna said.

"Won't the Kauravas leave us alone here also ?" Nakul asked.

"Why won't they let you ? In fact I am going to Hastinapur. Duryodhan has asked me to teach him Gadayudh. I will explain it to Duryodhan." Balram said.

"Dau, won't you come to Dwarika then ?" Krishna asked.

"Now you're grown up Krishna, don't depend on me." Balram joked.

"Certainly. You may go." Krishna smiled.

"I suggest Bheem to also accompany me. I can also teach you few moves and you can show me your cooking skill that Rajeshwari talks so highly of." Balram said.

"It would be an honor to be your student Bhrata Balram and an even greater honor to present you with my dishes. But I do no wish to go to Hastinapur again. Maybe some other time, I shall come to Dwarika and learn some moves from you and make tasty dishes for you." Bheem said politely.

"Alright, suit yourself then." Balram smiled.

"Dau, do remember us when you have a meal." Tamasvini said.

"And spoil my meal by thinking of you all. Huh ?" Balram said ruffling her hair.

"Dau..." She whined setting her hair again. Everyone chuckled.

"Now I shall take your leave. I must leave for Hastinapur early in the morning." Balram said and went to his room.

"Madhav, why did you talk about Kingdom's defense ?" Arjun asked.

"Parth, a lesson from Rajniti is that one must always be friendly with neighbouring kingdoms. But if a king refuses to be friendly then make friends with his neighbours. Then both his borders will be unprotected." Krishna said.

"Then what should we do Keshav ?" Nakul asked.

"In Shashtras, the bond of marriage is considered the supreme among all alliances." Krishna said.

"And when we thought, we will have some peace in here." Bheem said.

"Bhrata Bheem, Indraprasth is not the end of your stories. It's a begining of a new chapter." Krishna said.

And at that all the couples look at each other, and smile. They are now ready to start a new chapter.

Now Yudhishthir is Maharaj and Satyamurti is Maharani.

Bheem is Yuvraj and Rajeshwari is Yuvrani.

Arjun is Senapati and Tamasvini is Sena-Sancharini.

What is a Sena-Sancharini ?

It's not regent like Senapati-Bharya, Tamasvini's main job is to look after army. Arrange food, weapons, shelter, medicines etc for the soldiers.

Basically Sanchar karna, Palan Poshan karna.

------

You know people saying that whatever Arjun achieved was because of Krishna is not something new. Even in Dwapar Yug people questioned him this.

And this was Arjun's reply -

"o brave one ! At the time of the expedition with the cattle, i fought with the immensely powerful gandharvas. who was my aide then and who was my friend then ?

I fought in the terrible battle of khandava, infested by gods and danavas who was my aide then ?

I fought in a battle with the nivatakavachas and the kalakeya danavas who was my aide then ?

O son ! I fought with many kurus in the city of virata. Who was my aide then ?"
