With his dying breath he tried to make Duryodhana stop the war. Arjuna's son died. Bhima also lost his son because of the celestial arrow Karna had. Drona died because he was was tricked by the Pandavas because they said his son died when he actually didn't. Bhima then drank the blood of Duhshasana fulfilling his vow. Arjuna then killed his brother Karna.

The Kauravas then began to flee once Karna was killed. Duryodhana then hid underwater. But he came out and lost his fight. Ashwatthaman then raided the Pandavas with the help of Shiva. Arjuna then took the jewel from Ashwatthamann's head. Yudhishthira then became the king. Arjuna followed the horse that Yudhishthira sent out to attone for his sins. Arjuna was then killed but came back to life. The horse was sacrificed and Yudhishthira became the king. Krishna was killed by a hunter by being shot in the foot. Then the Pandavas went to heaven and everything was alright.
