Sigh, if population was rising I would have won! With a large victory, Mugabe dictatorship is inevitable. Ok, time to leave. Small helicopter takes off from New Sarum, heading for South Africa. A red sun sets on scenes of war below, pillars of smoke rising from villages, columns of refugees and trucks with jubilant Mugabe supporters firing AK-47 into the air unwittingly heralding the dawn of an age of hell.
