I'm not at home so I can't cheat and double check 😆 but from what I remember he comes to see Duryodhan and is asked to find Kripacharya, Ashwathama, Kritvarma and tell them he's still alive 🤢

Next (If I'm correct lol): Who were the only 2 Kings of Bharatvarsh to not fight in the war, and why?

No, actually, after Shalya was killed and Duryodhan, Ashwatthama, Kripa & Kritavarma fled the field, Sanjaya was concerned and came to battle and started fighting for the Kauravas. Satyaki easily defeated him and was about to execute him, but Vyasa intervened & got him released. Sanjaya then went to see Duryodhan.

Answer to your question - one was Rukmi, and the other was Ugrasena (from his kingdom, Satyaki & Kritavarma fought on opposite sides, but Dwarka was largely neutral. Krishna only gave his own personal army to Duryodhan)

Prativindhya was the son of Yudhishthir,
Srutasoma of Bhim,
Srutakirti of Arjuna,
Satanika of Nakul, and
Srutakarma of Sahadev

To answer this fully, the following does not come under the Mahabharata
  • Krishna's birth
  • Krishna's childhood & gurukul
  • Wars against Jarasandha
  • Marriage w/ Rukmini, Jambavati & Satyabhama
  • War on Narakasura
  • Killing of Rukmi, Paundrak & Dantavatra
  • War on Banasura
The following does come under the Mahabharata
  • Killing of Jarasandha & Sishupala
  • Killing of Shalva
  • Satyabhama's conversation w/ Draupadi
  • Destruction of the Yadavas
Aside from this, there are some items not mentioned in the Mahabharata, but which do involve the Pandavas & Kauravas. Like in Krishna's marriages to Kalindhi & Satya, Arjun was there to help him. Then there was Krishna's son Samba abducting Duryodhan's daughter Lakshmanaa. Plus other things involving the Pandavas or the Kauravas that didn't get mentioned in the Mahabharata.

For violating Yudhisthir/Draupadi's marital privacy to get his bow to help a brahmin who was being robbed

Next question: Which weapon did Ashwathama release on the entire Pandava army following his father's death, for which Krishna advised them all to surrender to that weapon to deactivate it?
