Uluka goes to the Pandavas

Uluka went to the Pandava camp and gave his message. This angered the Pandavas. They said - Tell Duryodhana that he is like the wicked bird. There was a bird who was wicked. The other birds realizing that killed him. Duryodhana will meet a similar fate.
Bhima said I will break Duryodhana's thigh.
Arjuna twang his bow. The noise scared Uluka.
Krishna said Think what Arjuna can do with his bow.

Uluka went and told Duryodhana about the might of the Pandavas. Duryodhana told his army not to worry.

Uluka meets Krishna

Janmajeya asked - Who was sent to Dwaraka as the messenger?
The sage said -
Uluka, son of Shakuni, as the messenger. Uluka gave the note of Duryodhana to Krishna.
Krishna read the note and smiled. He said - Tell Duryodhana that I am impartial. Let Duryodhana remember that Arjuna had freed him from the Gandharvas. He had promised to return Pandavas their land, so why does he go back on his word? Go and give this message. I will come there later. I have no problems becoming a charioteer but Arjuna had asked me before. Arjuna has said he will come here in five days. Let Duryodhana also come. Let the one who comes to me first get me.

With that Uluka left.

Krishna then ordered for a bed to be made at the head of which was a wonderful throne studded with gems. There was some space kept at the end.

After five days, Krishna lay down on that bed.
