As he reached the cliff, he caught the glimpse of his village after months.


O, it looks so green, he said.

He was about to fall on the ground to cushion his native meadows and feel the warmth of his home-soil. 


But from a distance he began to reckon a walk; there she is, he said.


As she started to get closer, he found that She looked pale as a corpse, dragging dirt with her attire.


Words won't come out from his mouth, he choked and opened his arms.


She came like a morning breeze unto his arms and was gone through his body as a smoky image.


Tears started to gush from his cold eyes and he new with his heart that something had happened.

A shriek cry, it followed as he woke up all in tears.

Now he's in a hurry as the rusty soldier veins have started to rush him with thousand emotions added.


He picks up his blood-written sword and runs through the meadows and bushes to reach the fenced wall of his village.

The gate was closed & no one looked to be around.

He was never a waiting person and with his vibes no one could stop him.

He jumped over the fence, running and whimpering, shattering everything even the guards with his body.


No arrow seemed to be blunt enough to pierce his Metallish soldier skin.

Finally he was looking at his hut, all in tears. He was thunder stricken like a standing spell waiting to be casted.


A small girl as a li'l Lilly flower came out of the hut and he looked through her and embraced her.

Soldiers stopped some distance behind and were now waiting with spears, arrows and swords. 


The girl started playing with his long hairs which were all over his face meanwhile his fingers pulled the hairs to the backside.

 And Ah! everyone looked to recognise him now!.


The guards threw their spears and swords down before their lost Soldier.

He started to ask about his wife and no one answered. 


He picked up his sword and said, Tell me Where Rose is!? Still no reply.

Then he asked his daughter, Where is your mother; li'l girl?

But she couldn't talk enough.


No soldier was brave or foolish enough to look right through his eyes.

He started pulling soldiers down to the dirt, even the walls looked to be sighing in dirt but with eyes down.


No one said nothing to the only question that could create a havoc;


He fell to his knees sobbing & wailing, when his li'l daughter came and began to wipe off his tears. He pulled his daughter up and entered his hut shutting the door.


The villagers started leaving all in whispers and murmurs.

Their lost Soldier was home but they couldn't face their Savior.

As he entered his home, he caught her miff right away and looked to be shaky. But with half asleep daughter in his lap, he managed to reach the cot.


Moonlight kept gazing through the windows as fine arrows to peirce a parted-heart. He couldn't sleep and neither could he weep anymore.

Every corner of his home came alive as if he was transfixed by the spell, still alive called love.

Now he wanted to evade from his choked reality;

So he sailed through the skies as his eyes turned stony for a while, looking out of the window into reaped fields and hay-corns but his vision wouldn't dwindle.


He kept chasing his demons until his eyes turned blood-red, meanwhile he heard a distant cough and suddenly he was dragged down to his boots.


He awakened his daughter carefully and pulled his sword without making any noise he jumped out of the window;

Suddenly, arrows started to follow everywhere he landed his foot.


His bravery was exemplary but he couldn't fight with lurking arrows & hidden ghosts with the li'l girl in his arms.


He jumped in a hut and gave his daughter to a maid, and slipped out to chase the shadows.


He was pierced with two arrows this time; one around his ribs another in his thigh; he broke them off & managed to tie his leg with a piece of cloth, he looked so angry now and hurried without any cover to pick a Spear.

He shouted out loud; Do you know whose village is this!?  SAGHAAAARR!!!!!!!!!!!


And threw a spear into the dark; a cry followed from behind the bushes.


Every villager looked dead terrified;


Saghaar sat down bleeding & guards hurried to the bushes.

While Villagers wanted to help him but wouldn't dare for now!....
