"She is known as Ambā, the eldest daughter of the lord of Kāśī. The other two, younger, O treasure of austerity, are Ambikā and Ambālikā. Then the royal kṣatriya host gathered in the city of Kāśī; O brahman sage, on account of the maiden a great festival was held there. Then, as they say, Bhīṣma, son of Śāṃtanu, of great valor and great splendor, casting aside the kings, carried off these three maidens. Having vanquished the rulers of the earth, the pure-souled Bhīṣma arrived with the maidens at Hastināpura, O Bhārata. Then, having informed Satyavatī, he gave orders for what followed, for the marriage of his brother Vicitravīrya."

Hotravāhana sends Ambā not merely to a mighty warrior, but to Rāma Jāmadagnya — an ascetic, a keeper of vows, and an unsurpassed wielder of arms. The account given before Akṛtavraṇa gathers the whole chain of causes anew: Bhīṣma's abduction of the princesses, Ambā's confession about Śālva, her release, Śālva's refusal, and her arrival in the forest. The precision of this retelling matters: before seeking redress, one must clearly name the source of the suffering and the measure of each party's responsibility. Ambā resolves to submit to Rāma's word, because her personal pain now enters the domain of dharma, of vows, and of righteous judgment.
