This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places, and events are either the product of the author's imagination or used fictitiously. Although the story is set against the real backdrop of Afghanistan's Kunar border region, the village of Darband, its people, and every character in these pages are invented. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or to actual events is purely coincidental.
Content note: this story contains war violence, the death of family members, grief, armed conflict, and references to child labor and smuggling. Reader discretion is advised.
Plagiarism is a crime. Inspiration is welcome. Copying is not.
