Hate Cauldron

An out and out tragedy of helplessness of characters having to part from their apple of the eye. The death is in them from that moment. They are ready to put their whole life into hating the souls responsible for shattering their dream. The span of time for which the portrayal of the characters is done makes it easy on reader's imagination, making it sequential and even the slight movements conspicuous.
