One such invitation found its way to the magnificent city of Dwaraka, where it was received by none other than Lord Krishna.
As Krishna read the letter, a serene smile played on his lips.
He sensed the significance of this event, knowing that it heralded the birth of a key player in the future of dharma.

"Where are you planning to go this time, my lord?" Satya asked playfully, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.
Krishna chuckled, pulling her close. "To Panchal, my dear. King Drupada is conducting a grand yajna, and I must attend."

Krishna loved and cherished Satya's possessiveness. It was a testament to the depth of her love for him. "Very well, my love," he said, caressing her cheek. "You shall accompany me. Together, we will witness the divine blessings unfold."
