When Vichitravirya died without a son, it was time for his mother Satyavati to panic. Fortunately she had another son through a pre-marital relationship with Parashar. This son was Ved Vyasa who upon invitation from mother agreed to beget aons to the two wives of his half brother Vichitravirya, Ambika and Ambalika. The two sons born were Dhritarashtra and Pandu. Their lienage waged the mother of all wars - the Mahabharata. This epic was written by Vyasa as per the records. Who else would have known the fine details of a war better than the grandpa of 'em all ?
