This puts a severe strain on Karels belief that it is her duty to remain objective abide by any and all local customs learn as much as she can and never pass judgment. It is small comfort when Mari her co-wife and co-captive tells her that Sang the husband they now share is less cruel than most. Mari also lets slip that some of the captive women try to run away and Karel happily accepts that as another custom shes entitled to follow. Karels first attempt at escape ends in recapture and her punishment is very severe and very public. Can she regain the courage to try again? If she does can she succeed?
