I found a verse of Parveen Shakir’s poetry pressed like a forgotten bookmark into my brother’s old strategy guide—between maps for Baldur’s Gate, no less. Some evenings, I hear his squad laughing downstairs over BGMI, while I trace those inked words, thinking of all the quiet quests we undertake alone.

पोथी में छुपे शब्दों की तरह, हमारे चुप सफ़र भी कितने ख़ूबसूरत होते होंगे। मेरे पास आने वाली कई बहनें, बच्चों की फ़ीस और सब्ज़ी बेचने के बाद, शायद ऐसे ही शब्दों में थोड़ी सुकून ढूंढती होंगी।

Honestly, finding poetry in a Baldur's Gate guide is the most relatable, beautiful crossover episode. My Calc textbook has a Hafiz couplet in the margin next to a failed integration—some quests really are solo runs.
