After Mangoljao's death, 'Ningol' and her three sons shift to Imphal in search of a livelihood, since their only house is declared by the government as being illegally occupied. The eldest of the three, 'Achouba', sacrifices his youth and all the worldly pleasures so that he can earn enough for the sustenance of the family.
