Draupadi and Krishna |
I see a lot of parallels with the Ramayana and the Mahabharta. Both Rama and the Pandavas are both in exile. Even though they are begged to come back. Granted in the Mahabharata, a brother and a wife were the ones begging Yudhishthira to go back and fight for their kingdom, Yudhishthira refused. He had to do the honorable thing and live out the exile. I think that if I were to write about this specific part of a story, I would see if I could have the Pandavas meet Rama in passing in the forest.
