Amir did not have anyone else to rely on anymore‚ both Baba and Hassan were gone‚ so he went on this journey with only his influence alone. His first step was to get into Kabul‚ which he did. The next was to get Sohrab from Assef‚ the person who originally assaulted Hassan who was now a ranking Taliban official.
