Draupadi's clothes being torn as she prays.

  • Man Draupadi gets shortchanged. Her husband comes back with a different wife
  • poor girl gets assigned to be a maid to draupadi

  • But bruh krishna is literally a god

Some fled, thinking the site was haunted or cursed. Some simply suspected the water was poisoned and ignored their thirst.
