Yudhishthir was in his room, looking through the letters from his brothers about the successful conquests, when Satyamurti entered his room with a scroll in her hand.
"Arya I have some important news to give to you." Satyamurti said.
"What dear ?" Yudhishthir said.
"The King of Sivi, Govasen is conducting a Swayamvar for his daughter, Rajkumari Devika. And he has invited many kings including you." She said.
"So ?" Yudhishthir asked.
"I want you to participate and win her hand." Satyamurti said.
"What ?" Yudhishthir frowned.
"Yes you heard me right. Sivi is a strong kingdom, alliance with it would be beneficial for Indraprasth. And nothing is stronger than a marriage alliance." Satyamurti said.
"B-but what about you ?" Yudhishthir asked.
"I have no problem with it, Arya. I will accept the princess with open hearts." Satyamurti said.
"What about Satyakant ? What will he think of me ?" Yudhishthir asked.
"Why don't we ask him ?" Satyamurti said.
"Fine." Yudhishthir nodded.
They both looked around for Satyakant and finally found him in the royal garden with his brothers, all of them playing the game of pitthu.
"Jyesht hurry !" Shalin said as he and Satyakant tried to pile the blocks.
"Not so quick !" Nabhraj said as he threw the ball at the pile making it fall.
"Yeah ! We won !" Biraj said.
"Great game brothers." Satyakant said patting Biraj's back.
"Nabhraj you're aim is so good." Shalin said putting his arms around his brother.
"I think I get it from my father." Nabhraj said.
Satyamurti and Yudhishthir smiled seeing the brothers playing together and having fun.
"Seeing them I remember our childhood at Nand-gao, pitthu was the favourite game of Kanha." Satyamurti smiled.
"Nice to see that they have a great bond." Yudhishthir said.
Suddenly the gaze of the princes fell on Satyamurti and Yudhishthir, they quickly went towards them and all touched their feet.
"Pranipat." The princes bowed.
"Ayushman bhava sons." They blessed.
"Satyakant, we wish to talk to you." Satyamurti said.
"Sure. Brothers, play another round and wait for me." Satyakant said.
"As you say." The brothers nodded and went back to their game.
"What did you want to talk about ?" Satyakant asked.
"Satyakant, do you love your mother ?" Yudhishthir asked.
"Yes Pitashree. I love and respect her very much." Satyakant said.
"Putra, what if I married another woman ? Will you be able to accept her ?" Yudhishthir asked.
"Yes ofcourse. I will give her the same love and respect I give to my own mother." Satyakant said.
"Why ? She didn't give birth to you." Yudhishthir tested him.
"According to scriptures, wife of father is mother. So although she didn't give birth to me, she still deserves the same love and respect." Satyakant said.
"Marvellous son." Satyamurti smiled.
Yudhishthir also smiled at the mindset of his son. He was assured that he can now go to the Swayamvar of Sivi Kingdom.

A/N
The four brothers are like Shri Ram, Bharat, Laxman and Shatrughan.
Even their characters are alike, I think I just made an accidental parallel once again.
