After a few hrs of tiring journey, Pandav family reached Varnavrat, sun was already set and sky was starting to turn black.
People returning to their homes having worked hard for whole day long, some children stood on sides of road to have a look at chariots and horses.They stopped in front of palace, where Purochan was waiting to welcome them along with few of his servants.
Karn helped Kunti get down, Nakul went to Awantika's chariot and saw her sound asleep.
A smile came on his lips seeing her relaxed face, she looked gorgeous without those threatning looks and anger filled eyes.
Her utariya was displaced from shoulders and was hanging by her left arm, he turned his head away, embarrassed for looking at her like this.
He moved closer and placed the utariya on her shoulders, then shook her lightly.
She immediately got alarmed and sat up straight.Nakul :- Hey, relax it's me, we've reached.
She looked around to notice the surroundings, sky was dark bluish with yellow and white stars twinkling, closed shops, not much of a crowd was present and a huge palace stood in front of them.
Awantika :- Oh.
She tried to get up but her knees were still weak.
Nakul :- Let me help you.
Holding her arm, he somehow managed to get her down and they walked to the gates, where others were waiting.
Kunti cupped her cheek.Kunti :- How are you feeling now putri ?
Awantika :- I feel better Rajmata, would be okay in a day or two.
Arjun :- Lets go inside.
Purochan :- Ya, welcome everyone to this palace.
Karn :- So, we'll be staying here, hmmmm quiet huge.
Purochan :- I have used all my knowledge and experience of years to get it constructed, a palace like this never had been made before or will be made in future.
He took a mirror and adjusted it at such an angle that reflecting moonlight illuminated the entire palace.
Bheem :- It's beautiful.
Yudhisthir :- Purochan mahoday, it seems like a lot of hard work had been put to use.
Purochan :- It's my job to serve you all prince.
Sahdev was quiet, he had a strange feeling in his heart, as if something was wrong.
Nakul :- Do we have our rooms ready ?
Purochan :- Of course prince Nakul, my servants will show your rooms, please make yourselves comfortable and take some rest as journey would have been tiring.
They went inside followed by servants, an evil smirk appeared on Purochan's face.
Purochan :- Rest Pandu putron, rest in peace.
