Shubham was sweating cold and the beating of his heart seemed as if he just got out of a war tub. It was like he had been amidst the Kurukshetra war—the dream was so clear, with the sounds of swords being hit and war cries all around the place. The example of Bhishma's chariot, the noise of arrows moving in the air, and the soldiers' cries were within his eyes. Shubham, still seeing the images in his mind, moved his head from side to side to make the picture go away, and then he got off the bed.

When Shubham bathed in the morning, he then prayed to the Lord Krishna, who was a loyal disciple for him. The reciting of mantras and familiar ceremonies brought him some peace but it was like the remembrance of the dream was an extra burden to him. He had this feeling that something more had to be had his mind.

Later, as Shubham was on his way back from work, to his house, he saw a very interesting tech poster for a new virtual reality game that was based on the Mahabharata. This was a colorful painting that illustrated the heroic fight between the Pandavas and Kauravas showing the changes of the times. The claim was that a player will be able to play as any character and best the ending of their choice through a series of choices. Breathed by his dream and the idea of the game, Shubham was really hyper. It was as if the universe had made his dream come true by putting reality and dream together.

Shubham in the end could not hold himself and he bought the game. He bought it, ran home and set it up. His hands were shaking as he was installing the VR system which was still a bit of a thrill of a long-awaited night and he had wanted to.
