A brahmin named Agni was hungry but had a hunger that couldn't be satisfied by any ordinary food. Agni is the god of fire and the only way he sees to satisfy his hunger is to consume an entire forest. He approaches Arjuna and Krishna and promises celestial weapons if they help him consume the forest. They agree and all they have to do is stop Indra from putting out the flames. Arjuna receives a bow that has infinitely many arrows in the quiver along with a chariot full of weapons. While Krishna receives a mace and a discus. Only 6 people survive this great battle but Agni is satisfied and shines bright with delight.
(Forest Fire
A good story idea from this story would be the actual battle between Indra and Agni/Arjuna/Krishna. Only 6 things were able to survive this great forest fire so it must have been a pretty epic fire(battle?).
