Sañjaya sprach: Der Wagenlenker trieb den Wagen eilends zum ruhmreichen Pāṇḍava. Nachdem er jene schreckliche, waffenartige Macht zu Asche verbrannt hatte, wandte er sich sogleich dem Wagen des berühmten Yudhiṣṭhira zu.

In the midst of violence, the narrative highlights swift, duty-oriented action: neutralizing a grave threat and immediately moving to protect the dharmic center of the army—Yudhiṣṭhira—reflecting the ethical priority of safeguarding righteous leadership.
Sañjaya reports rapid movement of a chariot toward the Pāṇḍava side; after a terrifying weapon-like power (śakti) is destroyed (reduced to ashes), the chariot quickly heads toward Yudhiṣṭhira’s chariot, indicating an urgent tactical shift to his vicinity.
