द्वन्द्वान्यनेकानि तथैव युद्धे द्रवन्ति शूराः परिभर्त्सयन्तः । विभीषणं निर्गतचापमार्गं बभूव बाहुप्रभवं सुघोरम् ॥ ११.८४ ॥

It reflects a Purāṇic-style retelling that adopts epic martial conventions (duels, taunts, missile imagery), illustrating how Purāṇas preserve and reframe earlier narrative materials for later audiences.
No specific geographic toponym is named in this verse; it is a battlefield setting without explicit location markers in the given line.
Implicitly, it presents the martial ethos of valor and confrontation (śūrāḥ, dvandvāni), while also foregrounding the dangers of escalation through taunts and weapon-trajectory exposure.
