Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 39
तदाव्रजच्चक्रमथो विलोक्य सर्वात्मना दैत्यवराः स्ववीर्यात् । नाशक्नुन्वारयितुं प्रचंडं दैवं यथा पूर्वमिवोपपन्नम्
tadāvrajaccakramatho vilokya sarvātmanā daityavarāḥ svavīryāt | nāśaknunvārayituṃ pracaṃḍaṃ daivaṃ yathā pūrvamivopapannam
When that discus came rushing on, the foremost Daityas, relying wholly on their own valor, looked on—yet they could not restrain the fierce force of destiny, just as before.
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) narrating to the sages (deduced)
Scene: The Sudarśana rushes forward like fate itself; daitya champions stare, braced by pride, yet their defenses fail as inevitability closes in.
