Here the tyrant, preparing for battle, appoints an heir and calls upon his old companions. It is telling that he recalls Hamsa and Dibhaka, long gone: in the hour of need, the proud man seeks support in a past that no longer exists. Thus scripture shows the futility of hoping in strength already spent; and next, Krishna yields the killing to Bhima.
