As the rebels move into Mattru Jong, everything becomes chaos. The imagery in vivid.... the circumstances are bad.

The moon wasn’t in the sky; the air was stiff, as if nature itself was afraid of what was happening.

There was only one escape route out of town. Everyone headed for it. Mothers were screaming the names of their lost children, and the lost children cried in vain.

One of them caught the fragments of the RPG. He cried out loudly and screamed that he was blind. No one dared to go out and help him. He was halted by another grenade that exploded, causing his remains and blood to sprinkle like rain on the nearby leaves and bushes.
