Yudhistira returns back

Vyasa then asked Yudhistira to return back to Hastinapura.
Hearing this, the brothers greeted the elders and left for their kingdom reluctantly.

Yudhistira began ruling his kingdom, his mind always wondering what Dhritarashtra, Gandhari, Kunti and Sanjaya were doing in the forest.

One day Narada came to meet Yudhistira. Yudhistira greeted the sage. Narada said I have come to tell you something. In the forest, one day, Dhritarashtra was doing a fire sacrifice. After the worship, he forgot to extinguish the fire.
Dhritarashtra, Gandhari, Kunti and Sanjaya were all meditating.The fire from the sacrifice burnt the huts and in the fire, all four perished.  Perform their last rites.

Hearing this, Yudhistira fell on the ground. Then regaining himself, the last rites of the dead elders was performed.
