Burning with hatred for the Pandavas for killing Duryodhana, his friend and saviour, and stricken with anger at his own fate, he vows to seek revenge. When he hears of an infallible gemstone that promises to restore his mortality and cure his leprosy ? and allows him to exact vengeance ? he is determined to go to any length to acquire it. But will his quest for mortality result in the death of the woman he loves?
