Reading Notes: Mahabharata Part A

Devavratha is the incarnation of a vasu and has powerful skills, similar to Rama. I'm not sure that he has a goal on the earth, unlike Rama. His attitude is similar to Rama in that he willingly gives up the throne for his father. Could do a story about the actual stealing of Sage Vasishtas cow.

Wow Bhishma just took a wild turn, when taking those girls. It's odd that the two sisters ended up marrying the same guy. Could turn into some family drama later…

I'm not sure I understand the whole Vyasa deal. Are these children going to succeed the throne? Even though they don't have the lineage? So Kama is a demigod and could have some interesting powers. Also of the sun god, that could be interesting.

Could have had Arjuna and Kama fight in their first meeting. Where is Kama in all of the struggle between the cousins?

I wonder how the Drupada didn't notice the Pandavas when they came back. I assume that they were involved in the initial attack that was ordered by Drona.
