December 26th - January 1st I almost died. I still don’t know how to describe why I didn’t… but somehow out of the four of us on that ship? I’m the only one who barely made it out alive. I don’t know where I am or how far from home I really am… or if I can ever go back. And all I can think about is if Amara even notices me gone. Of course she does—but I wonder if she thinks the worst since running away is practically impossible. Maybe she thinks I was kidnapped - or that those men escaped and I was simply at the wrong place at the wrong time. It's hard to say. She isn't dumb and her mercy is limitless. I know this for fact. This is her fault. If she hadn't forced me to compromise my freedom... I would have never ran away.
But where I'm from? It's a beautiful island... but that's the illusion. It's a cage for someone like me. I don't know what I was thinking... freeing criminals and using them to hitch a ride to the outlands? What had been my plan, anyway...
Hungry. Very thirsty. I forgot just how much you needed food and water to live until it hasn’t been had for days. I lost count after five. All I know is it takes seven days without water before you’re dead… and I never imagined this could be the end for someone like me.
Danger surrounds me now and I feel more alone than I was in Nijieh Mesa.
