He liked her willingness to explore other's points of view and her passion for learning about other mythologies.

Purnima fell in love with Apollo/Ares/Helios in a month. She requested him to visit her parents back home in India. She wanted him to convince them to allow him to marry their daughter. He made up a fake profile and impressed Purnima's parents. Eventually, they got married. A year later, Abhimanyu was born. A few months after that, Apollo/Ares/Helios revealed his true nature to his wife and in-laws. He told them about Camp Half-Blood in America. After that, he left, promising that he would keep watching over his son.

Abhimanyu's mother and grandparents told him many mythological stories about his mother's as well as his father's side. They also made sure he learnt the basics of archery, swordfighting and martial arts. Abhimanyu also trained in North Indian (Hindustani) classical music. One day, when Abhimanyu was 15, a harpy suddenly came to their home and began harassing his grandfather. Abhimanyu took a bow, nocked an arrow and hit the harpy in the chest. It didn't kill her, but scared her off. His mother realised that Abhimanyu needed to go to his camp. Abhimanyu's family gave him some special gifts. Then they prayed for his well-being and, with a heavy heart, put him on a flight to America.

She has asked him to keep the sword and arrows as a good luck charm and use them only when they are really necessary.
