After a long and tiring day on the plantation I finally get to get some sleep. I haven't eaten good food since I was born, only food that will keep me alive. I really just want to run away up north.
Did you hear, we are planning on running away up north tonight. It is time we leave for good.
What are you crazy? If our owner finds out, he will beat us or even kill us. I won't tell anyone but I have to think before I put my life on the line.
Is it time already?
Do I risk my life or should I stay here and continue being a slave. What do I do?
Yes, it is time to leave. Are you coming or not?
Im coming.
Great, now grab whatever you need and let go before we run out of time. WE HAVE TO BE FAST AND QUITE.
Lets go. we have to be quick before our owner William finds us. if anything happens remember to follow the Northern star.
This is the point of no return. Hopefully this is the hardest part.
Runnn!!! Don't stop for me. Just follow the path until you see Catherine. She will keep you safe and feed you!!!
There is no going back now. I have to keep going for my free future.
Stop right there!!
Please forgive me. Ill come back without a fight.
You are better off a deadman. You are coming back with me and get ready to get whipped.
I hope he will be okay.
Now that I am alone... I have to find somewhere to stay during the day and I will have to follow the Northern Star tomorrow already.
This looks like good place to stay during the day. Its in the middle of nowhere and really quite.
I am so hungry but ill have to wait until I find Catherine. I will head out right after sunset to make it in time. But for now I will have to rest for another long night.
It is going to be a long a rainy night. Hopefully that makes the journey a little easier from being caught. Now, where is the norther star.
There it is.
I am getting tired and I'm really hungry. Hopefully I will meet Catherine soon. For now I just have to head towards the Northern Star
Yes I am, head down the right path to the little river house. Knock three times and they will open the door and give you food. Be here tomorrow at sunset
Are you from William's Farm?
Thank you so much. I will make sure to pass along the information for everyone to be ready.
Yes are you Catherine?
I hope this isn't a trap to catch me. I guess I will just have to find out.
Bang Bang Bang
There is only one rule is here, you have to be quite as possible. You must be starving here is some food that we have left.
He is really weak and I don't feel like he can make it.
Thank you so much, I really needed this. Catherine led me here and said that we leave tomorrow at sunset.
We will try to help him make it as he already came so far. Hopefully he an make it.
Hope everyone had a good rest and is ready. We go down this path along the river until we reach a hole we dug out for you to sleep in.
We have to go before it starts to get bright outside.
I think he is dead.
We must continue. There is nothing we can do anymore.
Get some sleep we have a the longest night ahead of us tomorrow.
ZZZZZ....
Hopefully we don't encounter any problems tomorrow. It is the final push for freedom.
Drink up, This night is going to be a long. It is the last night if we make it there. Don't give up now.
There it is, the Northern Star, higher in the sky than I last remember. Almost there.Almost free.
Final stretch. Im exhausted but I am so happy we are almost there.
Lets go. Just over those mountains you will be free. I will leave your by my sister's place and she will take car of you. You will be free from then on.
Here we are. This is my sister's house. You are now free. I hope you have a great life and hopefully you can help with freeing more slaves.
Freedom!!!Our journey continues to fight for everyone's freedom.
