Once when Jyāmagha gained a victory in a fight, he brought a girl and entrusted the child to his wife saying “This child is your daughter-in-law.” Śaibyā was surprised and enquired “How can that be when I have no son?” Jyāmagha replied, “She is to be the wife of a son who will be born to you soon.” By means of the hard penance of that girl, Śaibyā got a handsome son named Vidarbha. Vidarbha married her and got two wise sons, Kratha and Kaiśika and a third son Lomapāda, who was righteous, virtuous and wise. All the three were great warriors also. Descending in order from Lomapāda came Babhru-Heti-Kaiśika-Cidi. From this Cidi came the Cedi dynasty of Kings. (Sṛṣṭi Khaṇḍa, Padma Purāṇa, Bhīṣmapulastya Saṃvāda).
