“A misotheist?” Krishna snorted softly. “You truly believe Commander Vasusena and Acharya Kripa are misotheists?”
          	
          	“Aren’t they?” Arjuna asked. “One kicked a god in the chest. The other, despite being born from divine blood, never once acknowledged his parentage.”
          	
          	His expression tightened.
          	
          	“And even today, Southern Kuru remains a place where people question the Gods openly. They challenge them. Criticise them. That entire nation feels like a monument built to mock heaven itself.”
          	
          	“Arjuna…” Krishna smiled faintly. “If a man questions something, does that mean he mocks it?”
          	
          	Arjuna did not answer immediately.
          	
          	“If we do not question, how do we learn? If we do not learn, how do we grow? And if there is no growth…” Krishna spread his hands slightly. “…what is that but a slower form of death?”
          	
          	“Keshav…”
          	
          	“The irony, Arjuna, is that the Kauravas are remembered as sinners because of their disobedience, while the Pandavas are remembered as virtuous because of their obedience.”
          	
          	His smile faded.
          	
          	“And for that time, that way of thinking was necessary.”
          	
          	Arjuna frowned.
          	
          	Krishna's gaze drifted toward the city beyond the window.
          	
          	“In that age, every great warrior carried the equivalent of a nuclear weapon in his hands. One angry prince could destroy a city. One foolish king could drown a kingdom in fire. Obedience restrained arrogance. Respect restrained recklessness. Servility, unpleasant as it sounds, prevented civilisation from tearing itself apart.”

          	  Baron_Silver - 'This was awesome! Arjuna is more likely to listen to Krishna and he makes a lot of good points. I love how he's the one explaining it. Makes him feel a lot more impartial than he feels at times, even though he genuinely is impartial most of the time. I loved this!'
          	  +n this comment ))) Raijin, the subtleties are really very beautifully woven into the writing.

@SaquibIqbal5 in the chapter.the traitor who appeared as friend. 
            
            Krishna said kali should not have the hold over this man not in this life .
            
            What does that even mean .
            
            We all vasu and kripa was immortals in this life. 
            
            But vasu left his warrior mode all long ago .
            
            Even having hold him why it would be destruction.
            As there was no wars neither the time he was living didn't reach the final stage of kaali yaksham .
            
            So,what does he mean by it

@SaquibIqbal5 lessing the sins.means he has to make the people perform less sins or the one who committed will be CLEANSED or redeemed .later .
            
            And it doesn't have to be included so the called goose one .or better to say monsters.
            
            Hey ,bro as raijin said this world is created by the power of pashupati astra .
            
            So ,whether this world is a copy of karna and suyodhana old world .

@SaquibIqbal5 Pandavas had their own team in Hastinapur and heaven bend towards them as indra is the father of arjun. 
            
            So ,vasu didn't have to help them at minimum.they believe their krishna ,so it was their wish to live or to be doomed irrevocably without knowing.
            
            And sahadev signed their own doom application without knowing the horrors in them .
            
            Sure ,he knew the fate of all .
            
            Just to save their own skins . They butchered the entire civilization.with that sahadev debt to kunti was completed. Raising them .
            
            And with it sahadev doomed his own uncle .shalya his mother's one and only brother. 
            
            All Pandavas sinned enough more than Kauravas ever did .

@Raijin1996 did vasu and rest of all suprise when this gambler sought to bet his family .
            
            Why bhishma didn't regard to be bet on board .
            
            Seeing his nature he more less than a elder man to his family and more near to a boot licker

@GodishalaSiddartha Not really.
            All of them, bluntly speaking, cussed him out. Yes, even Bhishma and Vidhura. Shakuni even adviced that a man should not let go his senses in gambling. 
            
            After what happened to Draupadi... all the elders went back cussing out Suyodhana.

@Raijin1996 as u said .why innocent ALWAYS on the radar off cruel people .
          
           Because the answer was worse in its own form .
          
          The death of a tyrant doesn't accumulate the audience to learn from it .
          
          If a normal innocent guy pushed into the world of wolves and hynea.
          
          Somehow he survive .then world calls him as a hero .
          
          
          But if he fails .the same world curse him .
          
          Same man. Same road but outcomes are different rather than actions he performed.
          
          
          And somehow his fall or win or even loss gives the story an adrenaline rush .
          
          A story of a monster drag people.but a innocent victims can be played as a chess piece in the grand scheme

@Raijin1996 how did that .mad .man even survive these many days .and he was running half of Panchal on his own terms .
          
          How did he succeeded as a king these many years .
          
          That's the reason why vyasa never found he was necessary to add his rule .
          Although basically he killed everyone's rule .
          
          Other than Pandavas

@Raijin1996 Just now saw the new chapter-preview (*three* posts long)! Like a foodie who suddenly and unexpectedly sees a favourite food on the plate :D 
          How many weeks (or months) will it be before you'll be able to put up this next chapter? 
          Looking forward especially to Satyavati's part (Please preview it later if it'll be many months wait?).
          
          Fabulous to see Krishna giving opinions when he doesn't have to drastically conceal truth to longterm ensure extreme annihilation for the sake of existential order. Loved it so much.
          
          The Dwaparyug situation is Hari and Hara working together, and Hari ensuring restraints on Vasusena's illwishers, and well-motivated allies for Vasusena, so that he doesn't just focus on Suyodhana's peripheries, and the changed world can be accomplished.
          Was it why Veda Vyasa kept indirectly provoking Satyavati while 'persuading' Gandhari? 
          That if sharply brilliant Satyavati were to understand she was being prepped to go help Vasusena (and keep righteousness-'guidable' Gandhari from repeatedly slipping off track), 
          then the larger 'situation' would no longer remain secret from Vasusena, as Satyavati was not in the shortlist that would be immune to his knowledge? 
          Or am I misunderstanding it a lot?
          
          No idea whether one or both of you are writing this currently. But will there be a Jain-MB version of the previous chapter? I prefer Dhritarashtra as a non-psychopath (though love both versions of this story for the writing calibre), so just asking.
          
          A request, please - two changes. 
          In the previous chapter, you wrote 'One was heir to a Saptarishi' both here and on ao3, then corrected it here to 'One was heir to one of the greatest sages'. Please, would you change it on ao3 too?
          
          And in the above chapter. "just one of the Pandavas could bring themselves to do it. And he was stopped." Could you change 'themselves' to 'himself', unless it's an ideological grammar thing?
          
          Again, *thank* you for the sumptuous three-posts treat.

@Raijin1996 hey,what is the punishment of krishna .on the fall of Tripura brothers. 
            
            Even though they sinned by their own actions but the main hand lies in krishna shell of a man who sended towards them and the jealousy of god's

@GodishalaSiddartha Hmm... See Hindi then. It was not as good as Tamil one but lessons remain same.
