Cung brought them into the forest, seeking protection from the dense of the trees.
Senja suggested to go to the villages nearby, however it was too far for them. With their speed of the carriage they would be caught halfway there.
Cung came up with the idea to trick them, but it would risk his life and that was the last thing Senja wanted to do. She didn't want everyone die because of her.
"Young Miss Senja… what your decision?"
Senja shook his head vigorously. "No." She said assertively.
Cung plan was to drop the three of them there inside the forest while he brought the carriage elsewhere as he lured their pursuer away.
It would be a great idea if it didn't cost Cung's life. Senja didn't want blood of people on their side on her hand, but she couldn't think of a different way that could save them.
"Young Miss Senja, please…" Cung pleaded. "All of us will die if we don't do something."
