Spread over snowy hillocks and sandy terrains, a prolonged battle was fought with the adamant King. But, Gandhivdhari was fierce than before, with his gandiv he defeated the vast army by streams of silver glazed arrows.
And soon followed the celebrant cries of his brothers. The 95th Fortress was destroyed.
