281 Life Bank Of Bharat

12th October 1655

Gujarat region, Surendranagar city.

In the city of Surendranagar, panic gripped the common people, as fear mounted with each passing moment as they awaited the potential attack from the Dakshin Bharatiya Empire. While a few skirmishes had already taken place, the anticipated major battle had yet to be launched, at least not yet.

Many people fled the city to escape the impending war. Unfortunately, most of these refugees unwittingly found themselves back within the territory controlled by the Mughal Empire. This wasn't because they favoured the Mughal Empire or felt secure within its borders; rather, it was due to their lack of awareness about the Dakshin Bharatiya Empire and uncertainty about the treatment of refugees there. At least in the Mughal Empire, they knew what to expect, even if it wasn't ideal.
