"Savi," Arjun stood, having no words to speak, "I  would have taken you with me, but I am going for a war now, and it is not safe for you to come with me. But I promise, I will be there for you whenever you want."

She smiled through her tears, the first thing she ever saw was her brother, for whom she had taken birth, now, not even a day passed when she had to bear separation from her brother. "I know, we will meet again," And with those words, the brother sister parted their ways.

"Swami, I knew he was to leave today, but then also, why did I create a sister for him? Knowing that he won't have much time with her? Why not before when he could spend with him?" Gauri asked Mahadev, uneasiness lacing her mind. "Adi shakti ki mann ki baat toh keval Adi Shakti hi jaane," With a mysterious smile, KailashSwami left.

"Mata," Savi called her, silently observing the conversation, she finally spoke, "What about me now?" The reason she was here was to be a sister to Arjun, now was her meaningless? "My daughter, until Arjun completes Mahadev's wish and finish the war, I will send you to great Rishi's to learn," Savi nodded, Prakruti's words soothing her.

When Arjun was leaving Kailash, he expressed his desire to present his Guru with Guru Dakshina, but what could a mere human give to the AdiDev? Thus Mahadev asked Arjun to single-handedly defeat a tyrant king, and there was no way Arjun would deny this, a chance to please his teacher. "Arjun, the one you are going to fight has a huge Army," Bholenath spoke with a teasing smile. "Mahadev, you have taught me many things, but fear isn't one of them. There is no army in the world who could win from ShivShisya Vibhatsu." Arjun was calm, he was confident in his skills. "I did not say that, I am saying, you would need a good charioteer to win this war. Thus, first you must find a charioteer with caliber such that they would match with Vibhatsu's speed."

"But where will I find such a charioteer?" Arjun was confused, till date every war he went to, he was mounted on a horse. Even after being a Maharathi, he didn't use chariot as there was no charioteer fast enough to keep up with his speed. "You may find a charioteer in Dwarka perhaps," The subtle hint was enough for Arjun.

At present, mounted on a horse, Arjun was on his way to Dwarka. The heaven on Earth, made by Vishwakarma himself. But surprisingly, that wasn't the best part, the best part was the founder of Dwarka. Dwarkadheesh, Vasudev Krishna. The Yadav Prince, the slayer of Putna, Trinavarta, Aghasur, and many more in young age. The one to give justice to Mathura by punishing Kans.  The Chakradhari, one who received the mighty chakra of MahaVishnu from Bhrigu Parshuram himself. 

Arjun was impressed, the way Mahadev spoke highly of him, Arjun felt devoted to the Giridhari, the one whom he never met, yet such close feeling. "I would meet Dwarkadheesh first, and then will search for the charioteer." He thought, excited about meeting Kanha.
