Chapters 3-4 Summary

The war starts to begin as the rebels attack each village of Ishmael’s country. The rebels consider themselves as the “Revolutionary United Front” as “one love”. Many of the villagers go into hiding after receiving the message of the rebels that was carved into their messenger. A couple days later the rebels attack out of the blue while everything seems to be quiet and normal. After they attack Ismael and his followers escape and try to find routes and paths to where they hear no gun shots or people being attacked.

Ishmael and his posse start to starve from walking for several days without food or water. The group turns back to Khalilou’s house to retrieve their money for food, although the house is in shambles the money that was hidden under the bed is still there. On the way out an item drops from the pocket of one of Ishmael’s group and signals the rebels.
