There was great celebrating on the Asuras' side now that they had the precious amrita that would keep them in power until the end of time. They began to prepare for a final assault on the Devas, wiping them from the pages of history. During their preparations, a beautiful enchantress appeared before them and they were soon mesmerized by her beauty. While their backs were turned, one of the Devas stole back the amrita, for the enchantress was truly Lord Vishnu in disguise to help the Devas retrieve the amrita.
Quickly the Devas drank up the amrita with great delight. Soon, the sound of war drums reached the ears of the Devas and they knew that the Asuras had come for battle. So the Devas gathered their mystical weapons and armor and met the Asuras on the beach for battle.
The sun was blotted out that day by thousands of arrows and sharp spears pierced the bellies of their targets as the Asuras and the Devas clashed. Maces bashed skulls, swords tore through flesh and bone, and the Asuras vomited blood and lay prostrate on the sandy shore of the battlefield. The sun sank and then rose and then sank again, but still the battle raged on. Heads rolled and bodies were felled like mighty trees in the forest.
As the ringing of steel and the cries of distress continued, Nara and Narayana, the twin brothers of Vishnu, entered the battle with their celestial weapons. Nara used his celestial bow to rain arrows from heaven, piercing the flesh of the enemy. Upon seeing this, Narayana summoned his destroying discus and with a great force he flung this discus into the Asura horde, annihilating a thousand Asuras and starting a fiery blaze that burned for days. This fire soon consumed the entire Asura army, thus ending one of the greatest battles that this world has ever seen.
With the amrita safely in the hands of the Devas, there was peace in the land, albeit briefly. But the Devas knew that their battles with the Asuras would never end. So, the Devas protect the amrita day and night until the world stops turning so that the Asuras could never get their hands on it again.
*Author's Note*
There really was not much for me to change about this final battle sequence. The imagery originally provided by the source that I read was one of the most intense things that I have ever read and, unfortunately, my retelling does not even come close to capturing the violence and chaos that was originally told. There were some details that I left out, like there was a little bit more trickery involved in the story with an Asura or two but those aspects of the story did not really pertain to the battle but pertained more to Hindu mythology in general so I left those things out.
