abstract | - Eventually, Nanib indeed joins the rebellion after he sees some Muslim sepoys refusing to use Enfield rifles because their cartridges, which must be bitten open before use, are covered with pork fat, which the men's Muslim beliefs do not allow them to consume. Though Nanib says he cannot consume pork fat either, he uses one of the rifles to fire a near-miss at Edwardson and then quickly escapes. After several raids on British forts, Nanib and another Sepoy hero, Pravar Patel, decided to rescue Bahadur Shah, the Emperor of India. They sneak into Delhi in the dead of night and destroy weapon caches to cause elephant stampedes, which destroy gates. He then rallies soldiers and battles through Delhi, freeing the Emperor. Finally, Nanib leads an assault to Colonel Edwardson's base, destroying it and killing Edwardson in the process.
