Shantanu: I didn't know you are that strong.

Satyavati: My King, You are a warrior and a King of a great kingdom, Hastinapur. You know that power and strength comes from the heart instead of hands. Desire is the power of the heart.

Shantanu: Only that much of desire is good which you can hold within your hands, Satyavati.

There is a long bow in one of his hand and the other one is on waist. Glow in his eyes is like that it seems the Sun itself live in his eyes. The wind wants to touch every single hair of him.

Hida: Who are you daring to challange the demon king Hida.

Man: Swords are given to warriors and Robbers are warned, Hida.

Hida gives the order to his army to kill him.

But no one can stand even a single minute infront of him.

Man starts to walk slowly towards Hida and punches him on face. Hida groans and falls down on the ground.

Man: You have your place to live demon Hida. You are not supposed to be here.

Hida: What about Humans then? Why they come to our place(Rakshasaavart) and cut our trees and attack on our lands?

Man: If this is true, then you have my word Hida. After today no human ever will go to your Raakshasaavart and also you make sure same for demons.

Man raises Hida from the ground.

Man: Free all of them who are captured.
