After getting the boon Banasura conquered the the TRILOKA & stated harassing Devatas and Rishis.
Frustrated Devatas prayed to ADISHAKTI,the mother goddess.
Please with the prayer Goddess appeared before them as a young girl.But it is a fact th8 whichever incarnation Adishakti took she do penance to rejoin with Mahadev .Hence Kumari devi did penance to marry Lord Shiva .

In hearing this Lord Shiva thought this was
Dawn and the auspicious hour had passed.Hence returned to Suchindram
Meanwhile goddess kanyakumari dressed in bridal attire was waiting for lord Shiva.As the bridegroom's party didn't arrived she became disappointed & Vowed to remain Virgin.

She scattered all the food
items kept for marriage which turned into sand and pabbles resembling rice and other item.
The multicolored sand found in Kanyakumari sea shore attribute to this incident.
After that Devi Kanyakumari killed Banasur in a fierce battle.
Devi is still waiting for lord Shiva with the hope that one day he will unite with her.
