At that time the kingdom of Ayodhyā passed through a crisis. King Trayyāruṇa banished his only son Satyavrata Triśaṅku and handed the realm over to his priest Devarāj Vasiṣṭha, but after twelve years Viśvāmitra restored Satyavrata to the throne, overcoming Vasiṣṭha. Satyavrata was succeeded by his son Hariścandra; Rohita succeeded him and is said to have built a fortress-town Rohitapura.⁶
