The Pandavas established the rule, and were content. Once some robbers stole the cattle of a poor brahmin. The Brahmin came to the Pandavas for help. Arjuna happened to hear the pleas of the brahmin. He decided to help him.
Now it so happened that the room where Arjuna had kept his weapons was also the room where Yudhistira was with Draupadi.
Saddened by the pleas of the brahmin, Arjuna decided he would rather take the exile rather than see the brahmin saddened by the loss of his wealth.
He took permission of Yudhistira, went into the room, took the weapons and helped the brahmin.
Returning back, Arjuna bowed before all and decided to move out into his exile. Taking permission of all, Arjuna left Khandavaprastha for his twelve years exile.
