The Shashwat Saga

Most of the time, people find it difficult to abandon their houses, relatives,  fields, and granaries without grave risk of loss. Unseen or unpredictable forces do not give a person much choice. He had always felt a sense of belonging to his village, no matter where he lived. Coming back home from an alien place, he should have felt a sense of elation, but times had changed, and so had the circumstances.  An empty home filled with loneliness waited for him. Only events from the past and shattered dreams accompanied him on this journey.
