Agni Dev, his form shimmering with the brilliance of sacred flames, returned to his palace, his mind filled with the monumental task ahead.
As he entered the grand hall, his wife Swaha, adorned in garments woven with the essence of fire, approached him, her eyes filled with curiosity and concern.
Seeing the seriousness in Agni Dev's demeanor, Swaha gently asked him, "What news do you bring from Vaikuntha, my lord?"
Agni Dev took her hands in his, feeling the warmth of their bond. "Narayan has devised a plan to restore dharma in Aryavarta. He has called upon us, the gods, to send our essences to be born as mortals. Our daughter, Agnija, will play a crucial role in this mission. She is to be reborn as Draupadi."
Swaha's eyes widened with alarm. "Our daughter? But how can I bear to be apart from her? She is the light of our existence."
Agni Dev's voice was gentle but firm, "I understand your fears, beloved. But this is a divine mission, one that requires our sacrifice for the greater good. Narayan himself has requested our aid. Our daughter's role is pivotal in the restoration of dharma."
Swaha's eyes filled with tears, and she clutched Agni Dev's hands tighter. "I cannot imagine being without her. The thought of her facing the mortal world's trials and tribulations alone is unbearable."
Just then, Agnija entered the hall, her presence radiant and serene. She had overheard her parents' conversation and approached them with a calm determination. "Mata, I have heard everything."
Swaha turned to her daughter, her heart aching. "Agnija, my child, how can I let you go? The mortal world is filled with dangers and uncertainties."
Agnija's eyes shone with a blend of courage and compassion. "Mata, it is an honor to serve the almighty Narayan in this divine mission. I am grateful for this opportunity to play my part in restoring balance to the world. I understand your worries, but we must think of the greater good. This is a chance for me to make a difference, to be a beacon of hope and strength."
Swaha looked at her daughter, seeing the unwavering resolve in her eyes. Her heart swelled with pride and sorrow. "You are wise beyond your years, my dear Agnija. If this is truly what you wish, I will support you. But know that my heart will always be with you, no matter where you are."
Agnija embraced her mother, her voice soft yet strong. "I will carry your love and blessings with me, always. This is our collective duty, and I am ready to fulfill it."
Agni Dev placed his hands on both their shoulders, his voice filled with both pride and reassurance. "We will remain connected, no matter the distance. Our bond transcends the mortal plane. Agnija, you carry the essence of our divine fire within you. Let it guide you and protect you."
