Yudhistira misses Krishna

Next day early morning Yudhistira called Arjuna. Arjuna came. Yudhistira said he was expecting Krishna to be there too. Arjuna said He had no idea. He had seen Krishna the previous day and after that, he did not know where Krishna had gone.
Yudhistira wondered why Krishna had left without informing. Had Yudhistira done something wrong? Everyone came to console Yudhistira. His brothers, Dhritarashtra, Vidura all came there. Soon Vyasa also came. Seeing the sage, Yudhistira wanted to know if the great sage knew about the whereabouts of Krishna.
Vyasa asked Yudhistira to start the sacrifice and not to worry. It must have been something very important because of which Krishna had to rush back. The sage he would leave and before that he said Send Bhima to fetch Krishna.
Bhima said he would start immediately.
When Bhima arrived in Dwaraka, he was warmly welcomed by Krishna. Rukmini brought food and Bhima was fed.
Bhima then said to Krishna that all were worried in Hastinapura as Krishna had left without informing anyone.
Krishna asked Bhima to stay the night and promised that he would go to Hastinapura in the morning.
The next day Krishna called Balarama, Samba and Pradyumna and asked them to take care of Dwaraka while he left to attend the sacrifice of Yudhistira. Kritavarma and Uddhava would go with him. Satyabhama and Rukmini also left with Krishna.
Hearing that Krishna was coming Yudhistira , the Pandava brothers, Vidura and Yuvanashwa came to welcome him.
Vyasa then came there to participate in the sacrifice. Krishna asked Yudhistira to not waste time and start the process for the sacrifice.
Vyasa said When you start the sacrifice there will be many difficulties. Your friend Krishna will help you combat those. Invite all great sages. They will all come and participate in this.

All arrangements were made. The sacrifice was about when trouble started.
