What gifts did they give?
Other gods similar to those, not just in Greek and Roman mythology
Indra then took Arjuna to the celestial and heavenly city of Svarga (replace with a seaside city or island?) where everything was just dandy. In this city were apsaras (nymphs maybe?) as well as gandharva who were male nature spirits.. all were rejoicing except one aspara approached him with a lot of hate because she had been tricked and mistreated by the god of love, Kama (Aphrodite, cupid, etc). She vowed that he would not find love
What city can replace this one, maybe a seaside city with mermaids or sirens?
What are other similar gods and deities?
Arjuna was reassured that this curse would be for the best in the end
How else can I use this or can I omit maybe?
Patala , (volcano maybe) the underworld housed daityas (demons basically) and danavas (not necessarily bad or good). Arjuna went to fight them and when he arrived the water divided and he saw monstrous creatures who were deployed to fight him by the daityas and danavas. He won.
Lots of fire and water
Use of Celestial weapons
What if the danavas join his team later on?
Arjuna then drove in his father's chariot to the city of demons and giants. All the giant women called to him but het ignored them which resulted in their deaths. Within the city he destroyed it.
Indra gave Arjuna a gold chain, diadem, and a war shell that had a thunder like blast in it.
Maybe change point of view to be the main character and in first person?
Maybe have the characters converse within the story?
