The rest of the evening was spent in joyful celebration, with music, dance, and storytelling filling the air. The villagers expressed their gratitude to Karna through heartfelt speeches and gestures of appreciation, and Karna received their praise with humility and gratitude.
As the night grew darker and the festivities began to wind down, Karna and the family went home, Little Krishna sitting on Karna's shoulder.
Karna entered his home, the day's events replaying in his mind. He felt a sense of fulfilment and contentment, knowing that he had fulfilled his duty and protected the people and the forest he held dear.
As he settled down in his chamber-
*Knock**Knock*
"Bhrata (Brother) open the door~"
Karna was surprised to hear the voice outside his door. He quickly recognized the familiar tone and smiled.
"Balram!" Karna called out, unlocking the door and opening it to find his dear friend standing there with a grin.
