The collective exclamations and protests from Khushi, Hina, Kali, Scáthach, and Radha Maa made it clear that Karna's attempt to simplify the situation had not succeeded.
Karna scratched his head, realizing that this was indeed a complex matter. "Alright, perhaps 'simple' was an oversimplification. There's more to it, but I promise to explain all the details later. For now, let's focus on welcoming Mandodari and enjoying our time together."
Khushi, Hina, Kali, and Scáthach exchanged knowing glances, understanding that Karna would provide a more detailed explanation when the time was right. They decided to let the matter rest for the moment and turned their attention to their new guest.
"Mother, Where is Ganga Maa? Is she not here?" Radha Maa's expression turned sombre as Karna inquired about the absence of Ganga Maa. She placed a hand on Karna's shoulder, her voice filled with gentleness and understanding.
