An Escape Turned Chase in the Cypress Swamp
Astrea plans to flee a dangerous plantation for freedom in a wooded cypress swamp. She meets Venus and Cybele, hides by night, and travels toward safety as bloodhounds pursue her. Rumford commands a search, the dogs track through fields, and Astrea uses blood to mislead them, reaching a tree limb for concealment.
