Synopsis

Vijaya implored Daksh to beseech Lord Shiva to remain within the palace alongside Sati. A shift occurred within Daksh; he made the request of Shiva himself, urging him to stay. Mahadev deferred the final decision to Sati. Meanwhile, Tarakasur, forewarned of his demise at the hands of Sati’s offspring, plotted an assault upon both Lord Shiva and her.
