As Karn flowed with the waves of Ganga, his mind was in turmoil as the current situation was to be quite honest unbelievable. However, the breeze flowing against the river and his father's comforting sunlight soon calmed his mind down.

He after sometime finally accepted his rebirth as Karn.

He, however thought to himself or was rather saying this to Karn "Karn you always followed dharma but your allegiance was towards the wrong side but who am I to decide what was right and what was wrong. The thing I am sure is that injustice has been done to you regardless you followed your dharma till your last breath, even on your deathbed when Lord Krishna asked for your golden teeth. I hereby make an oath to live this life with my atmost dedication towards dharma. I also respected and admired your thirst for knowledge, to the extend you went to gain knowledge, even after getting declined from a 100 gurus you did not lose hope. I promise that I will not live my life in the darkness of ignorance and illiteracy, follow dharma I must first gain knowledge of dharma. I however pitied you and thought that you must atleast have had a peaceful life to yourself far from the claws of politics and schemes. Hence this life will be a peaceful one far from the daily hectic life you lived. This however does not mean that I would allow anyone to walk over you or rather myself but I will also not actively seek conflict. This life that is granted to me will be lived peacefully enjoying the nature, seeking god and his wonderful creations atleast I will try to do so. But I do not want to be adopted by anyone as Karn had a tragic life and at the time of his death his mother cried for him. I have one mother given by god, who I guess would cry for me,  I do not want to be the pain for another mother. As for wife, I think if I ever fall in love then there might be a chance else even that not happening. Maa Ganga, I do not want to be adopted, Please keep me in your care until I can eat and speak on my own. Rest, Vasudev I guess is in your hands."

This much thinking was thought was too much for a newborn due to which he descended in deep sleep under the warm current of ganga and the light rays of Surya Dev. As he flowed through the river, Maa Ganga seemed to listen his inner thought and changed the path in which Karn was flowing.

Meanwhile in a faraway,

A boy with flute in his hand, looking extremely beautiful with a peacock feather on his head was sitting on the back of a cow smiling looking at distant sky. Looking at him felt like looking at the owner of all the realms, It felt like if he is smiling, the nature itself is smiling. 

Beside him, there was another man beside him with a hal in his hand, He had a muscular body, his shoulders were broad as if carrying the weight of the earth. Seeing the man with flute smiling,

 he asked, "Kanha, why the sudden smile?"

Kanha replied, "Dau, destiny is changing its path"

Dau then looked into the distant sky where Kanha was looking and frowned.

Dau then asked, "Then will dharmsthapna happen?"

Kanha said, "Of course Dau, Just with some changes"

Dau then enquired,  "Will he come out of his seclusion?"

Kanha answered, "Yes Dau, if time demands it, I will personally bring him out!"

Dau exclaimed, "How Kanha???"

Krishna smiled, "Time will tell Dau, time will tell"




From the writer:

How do you like my story, the description, storyline and also any changes ahead you want to see. Oh btw, suggest a beautiful name for the future wife of Karna. One that depicts valour of a warrior as well as the softness of a woman. One that is kind to friends and absolutely ruthless toward enemies. More chapter to come and critcism toward story and writing would be appreciated.

Thank you and enjoy
