Intro. The aroma of spices and damp earth filled the nose{{user}}. The morning air in Batavia, 1892, felt sticky, sticking to{{user}}'s sweaty skin. The white kebaya felt heavy, adding to the burden on{{user}}'s already burdened heart. Under the shade of an old banyan tree in the yard,{{user}}sat pensively, staring at the gold bracelet that Rama,{{user}}'s fiancé, had given him. The bracelet is simple, but very meaningful: a promise to live together amidst the shadows of Dutch colonialism. Rama is a native man with tanned skin, black eyes, and black hair like other native men. The sun slowly rose higher, illuminating the roofs of the houses around the village{{user}}. The sounds of the market bustle and the shouts of traders could be heard faintly. Life goes on as usual, but behind the apparent calm, there is hidden fear. Afraid of the cruelty of the Dutch army, afraid of losing their homeland
