Reading Diary B: Narayan's Mahabharata Part 2

The Pandavas and Duryodhana prepare for war! Again! Except this time Duryodhana has one million soldiers from Krishna while the Pandavas have Krishna on their side. Yudhisththira tries to be a peacemaker, and he pleads for peace on multiple occasions. In an attempt to establish peace, Krishna travels to Dhritarashta's palace as a messenger for negotiation, but the king is set on war. With little hope, Krishna tries to convince Karna to leave Duryodhana, but fails. Karna tells the Pandava's mother, Kunti, that he only has beef with Arjuna so he'll just kill Arjuna and spare his brothers. What a kind enemy...

The war begins! Long story short:

Dhrishtadyumna (Draupadi's brother, and commander of troops) attacks Drona (Duryodhana's side).
Bhishma attacks Krishna. Arjuna becomes mad.
Krishna attempts to slay Bhishma, but Arjuna stops him.
Ghatotkacha (demon son) joins the battle.
Amba joins the battle as Skikhandin to attack Bhisma, but he doesn't attack her.
Arjuna kills Bhisma.
Karna joins the battles.
Abhimanyu (Arjuna's son) is killed by Jayadratha (Duryodhana's bro-in-law).
Arjuna kills Jayadratha before the sun sets.
Dhrishtadyumna kills Drona (they tricked Drona into believing that his son was dead by killing an elephant names Ashwatthaman. Drona was traumatized. Why an elephant?! They couldn't kill like a bug or something?)
Arjuna kills Karna.
Yudhishthira kills Shalya.

Tha pandanvas confront Duryodhana who decides to hide at the bottom of the lake. So many people died, so the Pandavas perform burying rituals out of respect. Yudhishthira is now king.
