You can either volunteer to join the king's army and then try to make your escape as an opportunity may offer, or slip away at once.

You are accustomed to the woods, and in native costume might pass without notice.

You can all swim, and it matters not where you strike the Prah.

If you travel at night and lie in the woods by day you should be able to get through.

At any rate you know that if you try to escape and are caught you will be killed.
