Week 10 Reading Diary A: Pandava quarrels

In this episode, we see the Pandavas are acquiring weapons. While they live in the forest, they chase after a dear that had stolen a staff from a brahmin. They were warned not to drink the water in the forest but they did it anyways. In their thirteenth year of exile, they are disguised as different average people.


Later on in the story, Uttara and Abhimanyu get married. The Pandavas make another peace offering. Here he asks for five villages for each of the brothers to be separated. If this were to happen then war could be avoided. Karna has the Brahmastra weapon. Bhishma tells him that he is conceited and this makes him super angry. War is imminent.
