In the Van ,
Rishi Sharadvan the son of saptrishi Gautam and Devi Ahilya had great passion for archery.
He had mastered all the 5 forms of the art and had decided to do Tapasya to become undefeated. That became a threat to the Deva's hence Indra the king of Swarga sent a apsara named Janapadi to district him.
Seeing the beautiful of the apsara the sage ejaculated while his seaman felt to the ground. The sage feeling ashamed he gave up his weapons and went deep in the forest to do his Tapasya.
The seaman took form of a boy and a girl soon after. Once while Sanvika was in the forest she heard the babies cry. That's when her eyes fell on them and she took them to Hastinapur.
She adopted the 2 and named them Kripa and Kripi. As the time passed , Sharadvan got to know about his kids and he went to the kuru kingdom.
He explained the truth to all and asked.
Sharad- Devi I know that you have adopted them and I am grateful for that. I request you to let Kripa come with me as I wish to be his guru.
San- They are your kids rishivar you don't have to request.
Sharadvan gratefully took his son and he also took Kripi to spend time with him. 1 year later he sent Kripi back as it was time for her kanyakul.
Sanvika took Kripi to the ashram of Maharishi Agastya. She met brahmavaidini Lopamudra and requested her to teach Kripi about everything. She then returned to Hastinapur where Vichitravirya was born.
In Hastinapur ,
As Vichitravirya was a infant maharaj Shantanu had fallen ill. It was the guilt that because of his love his son had taken an oath to give up the throne.
He was on his death bed when he heard Satyavati telling her father who came to see Shantanu.
Satya- Now I'll make my son the next king as Bhishma has taken a oath to never inherit the throne. I'll make sure to teach Sanvika the role of a women. She is nothing but a burden to my husband after all she doesn't want to marry.
Shantanu was angered by the statement and then he ordered for all the praja to come in the royal ground. Saying that since he is on his death bed he would crown the one who shall succeed him.
All the praja saw Bhishma and Sanvika helping the king while they also saw that Chitrangada and Satyavati were sitting peacefully.
The praja prayed for a miracle to happen. As they didn't like the attitude of Satyavati at all. That's when Shantanu sat next to the throne and said.
Shan- I Shantanu am here to announce the new ruler of Hastinapur. That person is well versed in politics as well as warfare.
The face of Satyavati fell as she knew that Shantanu was going to crown Sanvika as the queen. As Chitrangada was not the best at politics.
Shan- When I met my jiji Sanvika after she returned from her education I asked her to take over the kingdom. She denied but I took a vow from her. The vow was that she would take the crown when I would give her the crown. Hence today I Shantanu declare Jiji Sanvika as the new Samragini of Hastinapur!
Crowd- Samragini Sanvika ki jai!
Pratipa putri , Sunanda Nandini Sanvika ki jai!
That's when Sanvika became the Samragini. Bhishma was happy as he didn't like Chitrangada as he had ego.
The rule of Sanvika had became so prominent that the kuru's had dropped all their alliances but they were still the best kingdom.
Sanvika also performed the Rajya suya yagya as well. The terror of Sanvika was felt through the cosmos and Indra also feared her next move.
3 years had passed with the prosperous reign of Sanvika. She never invaded any kingdom but had fought against all.
The revered sage , Brahmarishi Vishwamitra had become the Kulguru of Hastinapur on the request of Sanvika.
One such day ,
She was taking care of the royal proceedings while suddenly came Devraj along with the other gods and goddesses. She first got up and touched the feet of Narad muni aka her guru and she greeted the others. While Bhishma also took the blessings of his mother.
Vish- Devraj what are you doing here?
Indra- Brahmarishi what is hidden from you? We have come here to seek shelter under Devi Sanvika.
San- But there are tridev's and the tridevi's how can I protect you?
Varun- Devi Brahmadev and Mata Saraswati are busy in meditation , Narayan and Mata Lakshmi are bounded to their vow while Mahadev is in samadhi and Mata Parvati is busy doing austerities.
All were confused as to what was happening. Hence , Sanvika asked.
San- Gurudev you explain to me what's happening.
Narad- Narayan Narayan Putri there is an asur Sena call the Bhayanak Sena , it's leader is Bhayankar asur. Bhayankar asur has a boon to die with a unknown Astra created by the one who kills him while his Sena has the boon to die from the student of Anjani Putra Hanuman and all the 9 alive prajapati's.
He being a devotee of Lakshmi Narayan did their Tapasya and asked them for a boon that they will not intervene in his conquest.
All the people of the court were shocked and that's when Suryadev said.
Surya- He had done the Tapasya of the Trimurti and has acquired the tridev Astras as well.
Vish- But how can Sanvika help you with the boon? I mean she has all the things but she doesn't have her own weapon and if you give her the knowledge to create a weapon , that will be nullified as it's against the boon gotten by Bhayankar asur.
All the gods , goddesses and the royals thought for a solution. That's when Sanvika remembered the boon of Guru Kartu.
Kartu- Putri I bless you with the power of creation. You can create anything that you want from weapons to kingdoms.
Sanvika then went to the royal garden where she sat in a lotus pose and chanted some mantras.
All the people in the court were confused and then they followed her to the garden and they were still confused.
But soon the confusion vanished as a circle of fire formed around her. Then a arrow started to take a shape in front of her.
Then in the arrow the 5 elements of the universe mixed. The the heat started to rise , thunder struck , the winds started to blow indicating a storm and the water levels started to rise.
That's when Lord Vishwakarma said.
Vkarma- The last time this happened was when the Pashupat Astra was created. Seeing the energy of the Astra , I can tell that it will be one of the most formidable Astras to exist.
Finally the Astra was created and then Sanvika opened her eyes and took the Astra in her hand.
San- The Astra is ready , Gurudev Narad remember the boon I got from guru kartu?
Narad muni then remembered the boon she had gotten from Kartu Rishi and said.
Narad- Narayan Narayan I do putri , now all you have to do is name this Astra.
San- I name it the Vidvanshak Astra.
She was then given a rath from Lord Vishwakarma to take her to Patal. She took the blessings of her guru and she said.
San- Bhishma , handle the kingdom and don't do anything that will make you bad. If Hastinapur isn't invited to any place like a Svayamvar don't go.
Bhi- Okay Pitrbhagini.
She then went to patal and started to fight.
Kulguru Vishwamitra was in Dev Lok watching the fight between Sanvika and Bhayankar asur and his Sena. Hence , in Hastinapur Satyavati took control.
As the svayamvar of the Kashi princesses was announced , Satyavati forced Bhishma to abduct the Kashi princesses.
Bhishma went to the kingdom of Kashi as it was the order of his step mother. As the 3 princesses came there , Bhishma said.
Bhi- I Bhishma at abducting the 3 princesses of Kashi. If anyone is capable then try to stop me!
That's when all the kings got up and then started to fight with Bhishma as he drove the chariot towards Hastinapur.
All the kings accepted the defeat and returned back but Salva the king of Salwa Rajya was still following Bhishma and he met the same feat as the others.
As they reached Hastinapur , Amba told Bhishma about her love and Bhishma after consulting the Brahmins let her go.
But being defeated , Shalva threw Amba out of the kingdom. She went back to Bhishma but he rejected to marry her as Satyavati didn't allow him.
She then went to all the kingdoms and then finally her maternal grandfather Rishi Hotravahana took her to the shelter of Bhagwan Parshuram.
At the same time the fight of Sanvika and Bhayankar asur was over. She gained the status of Ati-maharathi during that fight. It was because she killed the 12 maharathi's and 36 akshauhini sena of Bhayankar asur.
She was then given all the divine Astras of all the gods and goddesses. Making her the only one after Mata Adi-parashakti , the tridev's and tridevi's to have all the Astras to exist.
She was on her way back when she got to know what happened to Amba. She rushed to the Kurukshetra as she had gotten to know that Bhishma was fighting his guru.
