October 6th, 1655
It was early in the morning in the city of Ahmedabad. Everyone was getting up from their sleep and trying to go about their duties even during these tough times.
Well, everyone except the City Defense Corps, of course, because they had to stay awake all night long in order to guard the city.
At the southern end of the city, there was a village called Gayaspur. This village was built on an island in the Sabarmati River.
*Glug, glug, glug*
Near the village, bubbles began to rise steadily from the water. At first, it was a slow trickle, but then they surged, increasing dramatically. Suddenly, *splash*!
Out of nowhere, a human head slowly popped out of the river and took big breaths of air. This was Sarvesh, who had left Kasindra the previous night. Sarvesh first looked around to make sure that he was not spotted. Fortunately, due to it being early in the morning and the sun not yet fully up, when he walked out of the river, he was covered by the darkness.
