Krishna's P.O.V.

I went to the gates of the Rajabhavan I was holding a pot The guards blocked the way with their spears

"Stop! What have you got there?" asked the guard looking at the pot

"Some kheer. It's prasad." I said

"Who are you?" asked the guard

"I am Gopal, The one who raises cows." I said the guard looked at me from top to bottom

"No one is allowed to enter." said the guard

"No one is allowed to enter?" I asked the guard nodded

"Oh. Sire, I have got it now. That Yadav. Krishna! He has tarnished the reputation of us gwalo. He has committed such deeds. That even heavily armoured rukshuk like you are afraid of us gwalo. It's alright." I said

"We are not afraid." said the guard

"Then may I g-go and deliver this kheer? To Prince Shishupal." I said

"Alright. You may enter, but return soon." said the guard

"As you say, sire. Thank you. As you say." I said and turned around to call Parth

"Come! Brihannala!" I called, and Parth came in a woman's disguise

"Who is she?" asked the guard

"She is my sister, sire. Her name is Brihannala." I said the guard looked at Parth from top to bottom

"She is taller and bigger than most women. Hence, maiya named her Brihannala." I said to the guard

Arjun's P.O.V.

"Let's go." Madhav told me, Madhav and I entered

"Madhav." I called, Madhav looked at me

"What kind of a disguise is this, Madhav?" I asked angrily

"I had told you, Parth. This task is going to be quite gruesome for you." he said Is this what he meant? I thought looking down

"But you better get used to it." he said I looked at him

"Who knows when it might just come in handy to you. And even the name this Brihannala." he said chuckling. We went in front of the Rajabhavan

"Parth." called Madhav I looked at him

"That is Rukmi." he said pointing his head at a rajkumar scolding a das

"Rukmini's Jyesht bhrata. Vidarbh's yuvraj. We should ask him as to where Rukmini's chamber is." said Madhav

"What are you saying, Madhav? He will know about your true identity." I said

"Even you don't know my true identity, Parth." he said smiling I looked at him confused

Recalling

I looked a Sahadev, he looked confused

"What is it Dev?" I asked

"How did Krishna know that Drupad will have seven illusions of himself?" asked Sahadev

"Dev," said bhrata Yudhisthir we looked at him

"Vasudev Krishna is considered an avatar of Lord Vishnu." he said

Recalling ended

Is what bhrata Yudhisthir said true? Is he an avatar of lord Vishnu? I thought

"Hold this." he said handing me the pot in his hand
