This book ends with the Pandavas being restored to their old identities, completing this arc of their character development. This passage emphasizes how, in spite of the many difficulties, the Pandavas turned their exile into a moment of triumph, experiencing new situations but always proving their worth, even during this ultimate test when they had to give up their illustrious names and let their virtue speak for itself. Virata’s approval of the brothers and the wedding of his daughter to Abhimanyu cement this as a joyous occasion.
