Set in a quiet park in Itanagar, this poignant short story begins with the death of an ordinary crow and unfolds into a powerful meditation on grief, indifference, and ecological loss. As a widow mourns her lifeless companion, fellow crows debate broken promises, an eagle remains detached, and life around them continues with unsettling normalcy. Through the quiet tragedy of a single bird, the narrative exposes the apathy of urban society, the failure of institutions, and the loneliness of mourning in a world that rarely pauses. Yet the story gradually expands beyond the park and into the forests of Arunachal Pradesh, where the narrator recalls a childhood once filled with the chorus of birds that is now giving way to an unsettling silence. Blending gentle satire, environmental consciousness, and quiet humanism, the story transforms the death of a crow into a lament for disappearing ecosystems and forgotten lives. At its heart, this is not merely a story about a bird. It is a story about memory, loss, and a civilization that continues to build cities while slowly emptying the skies of song.
