Dyumatsena’s Restoration and Sāvitrī’s Disclosure of Yama’s Boons (आरण्यकपर्व, अध्याय २८२)
इत्युक्त्वा तामनिन्द्याड्रीं स राक्षसमहेश्वर: । तत्रैवान्तहितो भूत्वा जगामाभिमतां दिशम्
ity uktvā tāmanindyādrīṃ sa rākṣasamaheśvaraḥ | tatraivāntahito bhūtvā jagāmābhimatāṃ diśam ||
かくして咎なきその山に言い放つや、羅刹の中の大いなる主はその場で忽然と姿を消し、望む方角へと去って行った。

The verse highlights a common epic motif: after declaring intent or delivering a message, a powerful being withdraws immediately. Ethically, it suggests restraint—action is taken only as far as necessary, and once purpose is fulfilled, one does not linger to create further harm or attachment.
Mārkaṇḍeya narrates that the chief Rākṣasa, after addressing the mountain, instantly becomes invisible/vanishes at that very place and then travels away in the direction he chooses.
