Foreword
Kaveri enriches Karunadu
The Rain Gods are angry
The benevolent herdsman
The city council meets
Punyakoti predicts
The crossover
Adbuta keeps watch
Hungry for revenge
A new patch of grass
The golden bell
A promise
Missing bell
Punyakoti turns back
Punyakoti meets Adbuta
Truth is the only weapon
Adbuta is surprised
I have a promise to keep
Truth is everything
Adbuta yields
Punyakoti returns
Time to say goodbye
Dark hours, dark clouds
Joy and shock
Wait ends
A Transformation
Crowd reaches bridge
The collapse
Adbuta turns away
