Chapter 42

Leaving the Fortress | Heading towards Machhiwara

As Guru Gobind Singh Ji makes their exit, they release two crescent-shaped arrows from their quiver, extinguishing torches and striking down soldiers with lightning speed. The battlefield becomes a scene of tumultuous chaos, with the clashing of swords and the cries of warriors echoing in the night.

The journey leads them to the wetlands, where exhaustion takes its toll. In these serene surroundings, the Guru finds solace and recuperation. They treat themselves with natural remedies, embracing a moment of peace amidst the relentless pursuit. Even in this state of fatigue, Guru Gobind Singh Ji remains the epitome of a warrior-saint, bearing their excellent, heavy bow—a symbol of their indomitable spirit and sacrifice.
