It starts off the the exile of the Pandavas. Draupadi and Bhima are very upset and want revenge on Duryodhana. They accuse Yudhishthira of being weak because he thinks they should not act on their emotions. Arjuna goes out on an adventure to gather weapons for when their exile is over and the Pandavas must face Duryodhana. After some time, the Pandavas traveled to the Himalayas and eventually were reunited with Arjuna. Hanuman was eventually brought into the story and I really enjoyed that because I remembered reading of him in Ramayana. I really enjoyed the story where Duryodhana was humiliated and I can see myself retelling that. I also can see myself retelling when Draupadi is taken. It reminded me of Ramayana when Sita was taken!
