Krishna arrives at Dhritarashtra’s emissary and he throws
and elaborate reception for her although that is not what she wanted. He plans
to take Krishna captive. Yudhishthira makes Dhrishtadyumna the commander of his
troops. Bhishma is the commander of Duryodhana’s troops. The battle is going to
be at the field of Kurukshetra. Drona escapes Dhrishtadyumna’s attemps at
killing him. Bhishma assaults Krishna and it makes Arjuna super mad. But when
Krishna went to go kill him, Arjuna pleaded that he don’t. Arjuna shot Bhishma.
Arjuna attacks and kills Karna when his chariot wheel got stuck in the mud
showing no mercy. After the battle is over, Pandavas go to Hastinapura.
Dhritarashta wants to kill Bhima but Krishna puts a statue in his place and
Dritarashta crushes the statue thinking it was him. Bhishma was still dying and
Yudhishthira goes to speak to him. Eventually once he passed, he was cremated
and put along the shores of the Ganges river. Krishna’s city was brought down
by the people and he is eventually killed by a hunter who had mistaken his feet
for birds. The Pandava line continues as Arjuna’s son eventually becomes king
at Hastinapura.
