Mahabharata 3.21.11

आहुकस्य वचो वीर तस्यैव परिचारक: । विषण्ण: सन्नकण्ठेन तन्निबोध युधिछिर

āhukasya vaco vīra tasyaiva paricārakaḥ | viṣaṇṇaḥ sannakaṇṭhena tannibodha yudhiṣṭhira ||

O hero, a servant of Āhuka (Ugrasena) came, distressed and with a choked voice. O Yudhiṣṭhira, listen carefully to the message he conveyed. The scene underscores how truthful reporting of grave news, even when painful, is a duty, and how a righteous king must receive such words with steadiness and discernment.
