Capítulo 158: Raid of Dutch Supplies part - 1

Chitradurga Fort, Vijayanagar Empire, a few days back on 15th March 1557

The midday sun blazed fiercely over Chitradurga Fort, casting a relentless heat over the sprawling landscape of deep forestation.

A lone rider, clad in dusty leather armour, cut through the shadowy path leading to open fields. His leather pouch wrapped around his waist contained crucial message which flapped over each beat of horse hooves. 

Sweat-soaked dhoti clung to his legs as he guided his horse along the rough, sun-baked path toward the fort.

As the rider neared the towering fortifications of Chitradurga, he reined in his horse with skilled expertise. The immense stone walls, fluttering with the banners of the Vijayanagara Empire, loomed imposingly against the bright, cloudless sky.
