- Ganga drowns seven of her sons because they are the reincarnations of the Vasus, who are being punished for stealing cows.
- Ganga took the eighth son with her and brought him up herself. It'd be interesting to write a story about him growing up and Ganga mothering him, since we know so little about it.
- Drona is a guru who is training the Pandavas and the Kauravas, as well as Ashwatthaman. They have to shoot an artificial bird, but only Arjuna is able to do this.
- The Pandavas have to escape and everyone thinks they are dead since the home they were in is set on fire.
- During a contest, Arjuna strings a bow and hits a target, which means he wins Draupadi as his bride.
