You quietly set Mimi on the ground and feel your way
along the dirt wall. You feel in the cracks in the dirt and search the
walls for a latch or handle.
Then you heard your sister a few yards behind you.
“Look,” she whispers.
You go over and see an opening behind a pile of reed
baskets. You can still hear the Aures above and carefully move the baskets
aside without making any noise. Scurrying through the opening, you
and Mimi crawl through the tunnel.
The sounds of the Aures get fainter and fainter until
you spot a light up ahead. You crawl up the steep incline and emerge
in a patch of thick bushes put there to hide the exit. You have escaped
but you can still hear the warriors faintly behind you.
Do you hide in the tunnel until they leave? -53-
Or do you run and hide in the forest? -54-
