In Holi Town, a certain Mr. Chand tells you a colorful story about three members of the Indian Resistance and their journeys throughout the subcontinent.

On the anniversary of the festival, Mr. Chand recounts the story of Kali (a coal baron), Bhura (a barrel merchant), and Laal (who owned a circus), and how they traveled throughout the subcontinent back in 1911 as leaders of the resistance against the British Raj.

“Each of them traveled from city to city in a continuous path, and no one revisited a city on their journey. Kali began her journey first, and ended it last, in a city that had also been visited by another traveler. Laal started his journey last, while Bhura was in Bombay and Kali was in Calcutta, but he made his way to Calcutta before anyone else moved again. And Bhura was in Karachi while Kali was in Lahore. Below is some information about the cities that they visited, with * denoting a starting city.”
