It was her turn to feed the Pakshiraj Garuda, as she was the one who had to explain to the monarch after he had repeatedly questioned her about her snake family and the custom of feeding him. King assured her that she would get her child back after learning everything. He prepared, wrapped a cloth around himself, and made his presentation to Garuda.
