Draupadi
Vyasa
Drupada
Plot: Arjuna won Draupadi as a wife in an archery contest but when they came home and told their mom that Arjuna had won a great prize, she told them to share the prize among them. It was too late at that point to take back what she said so they were conflicted on what to do. Drupada sent his son as a spy who overheard the Pandavas talking so he went back and reported to Drupada who requested the Pandavas come back to the palace. They turned to Vyasa for help on what to do and he said that Draupadi had to be the wife of all five princes because she had requested for a husband five times in her past life and now she was being granted her wish. The five pandavas are also reincarnations of Indra so they count as the same person so Draupadi was married off to each son in five consecutive days going from oldest to youngest.
Story Idea: I want to add more detail to the scene but keep the plot the same because I really enjoyed reading this scene.
