Buck's Mahabharata
- After the battle is over, Arjuna dismounts from his chariot, and it disintegrates into ashes. This is because Drona had destroyed Arjuna's chariot two days before the end of the battle, but Krishna had managed to hold it together by the power of illusion.
- Ashwatthaman finds the camp guarded by a pale giant dressed in a tiger skin, with three eyes, a manifestation of Shiva. As Ashwatthaman launches his weapons at the giant Shiva, Shiva swallows them up.
- As the lone survivor of the raid, he goes to tell the Pandavas and Krishna the next day about what happened in the camp. Bhima is outraged and follows Ashwatthaman's trail from the camp. Krishna urges Arjuna to hurry in pursuit in order to stop Bhima from attacking Ashwatthaman, who is in possession of the Brahma-astra, or the deadly Brahma mantra.
