Well, Draupadi used to be one of my favorite
characters. Now, she’s just annoying. I know that she lost everything that knew due
to one of her husband’s losing a gamble, but come on. Who cares about her ivory chairs and
luxurious beds? The men surrounding her have lived through worse and she’s just
lamenting about how bad her life suddenly is.
I agree on the point of her husbands not coming to her defense, but
still. She’s really annoying in the beginning
of this section.
You’d think the wife of five men who are the sons of gods
would manage to get into a little less trouble.
She was gambled away at the start of the section and now she’s been
claimed by another prince. Between her and the problems caused by the Kauravas,
the Pandavas will never find a moment’s peace!
I think it could be fun to use the scene from Krishna’s
Mission in my storybook. I can just
picture how Charlotte’s husband will react to seeing Vishnu in the
All-Form. I should really give him a
name though. I can’t just keep calling
him Charlotte’s husband.
There are several other scenes throughout this section of
the epic that I could possibly rewrite for my storybook. The hardest part is figuring out how to fit
my character in without completely destroying the original theme of the story.
