The Mosaic Of Insurgency

Banished from her motherland, Gauhar flees to a distant dreamland of familiar people. Love pretends to enter her life with a delicate hint of trouble in the form of a complicated pregnancy. After bearing her son, Gauhar endeavors with fervor to impart her best knowledge to him. However, a series of ominous events strike her life after her husband joins an insurgent group of rebels.

Raging to revolt against the age-old occupation of their land, Shaheer evolves as the leader of the mutiny. While raising her son in the wake of the dystopia, Gauhar dedicates herself to learning about the truth of the geopolitical contentions. The long-drawn history, extending over 400 years, clutters her mind to the point of daze.

As the insurgency roars with other powers uniting against the central authoritarians, there is a dim hope of occupation among the rebels until chief officials assassinate Shaheer at the ‘altar of peace’ where he was addressing the people. The geopolitical tensions surge to a point of diplomacy, leaving the nation to burn on its own.

With kids becoming the target of the tyrannical rulers, Gauhar plans to leave the nation and retreat to her motherland. However, due to a lack of cooperation, it is impossible to leave the nation, and the only unguarded passage is locked by mountain ranges. With the dilemma making Gauhar weaker every day, she decides to keep her son aloof from any history while struggling with hunger and impoverishment to the extent of extinction along with thousands of other captives.

Aware that the insurgency was set to fail, she strives to get behind the uprising only to find out that Shaheer had killed the clan leader to take his spot, intending to legally give away the land to the government for the upliftment of his people who were living with an anonymous nationality.

Gauhar finds it even more difficult to keep her son unaware as he grows with a hunger to know more and more. Closer to the family of higher officials as she is the housemaid, Gauhar hides her identity as she doesn't look like the captives and now relieved that she can attend to her son’s needs. She learns more about the day when Shaheer was killed. It is revealed in a letter that the house lord has received from the chief that Shaheer wanted to take over the chief and become the president solely for his own good, which fueled his assassination.

Upon finding the malevolence behind Shaheer’s intentions, she decides to drop her mission and make sure that she would continue to live like a slave. However, the insurgency strikes again after Nazir, her son, becomes an adolescent. Worried that this chain of events will never stop and that she might lose her son to the maze of politics, she decides to shoot her son at the same altar of peace where his father was killed, after she finds out that Nazir has been secretly leaking confidential information from the chairman’s room to the militants and seeks to assassinate the chief to fulfill his vendetta.

Appreciating her knowledge and grit, the chief names Gauhar as the vice president, who is devastated and broken at how her life has ended up. Now working for the upliftment of the people, she represents the nation and its sorrowful history. Upon finding out her father is no more, Gauhar goes to visit her motherland, where she is falsely charged with the assassination by her brother who wants to take over the empire of both nations. This news saddens the people, who further break apart due to heightening divides of income and views.

Her brother is killed in the war that arises with the empires fragmenting into distressful provinces with an uncertain future and crisis at the stake of the world powers who think of them as pawns and cheap labor. Upon finding Gauhar's body, people decide to give her a respectful burial but end up struggling to find a place because all nations have declared her as the ‘heretic’. The story ends with people looking for a place to bury her as they hear the sirens indicating that a war is about to commence soon.
