That night, under the banyan’s airy shade, Jil Hub became their map. Jil and Anu plotted routes with charcoal on corrugated cardboard: meetings at tea stalls, a lunchtime talk at the fish market, a nighttime screening of footage showing bulldozers carving dunes elsewhere. They scribbled names of elders, fishermen, schoolteachers, and the young tech-savvy children who could turn a hand-drawn leaflet into a social media post that could travel faster than a monsoon.
