He used his witts out in the forest, along with tools he had made himself with a little hut made of fallen trees and leaves. People wonder where the man named Matthew Davis went, or even if he died.

I pulled back, away from the wall. “We’re trapped. We have to get out of here.” I was almost choking on my own fear. “And fo where?” Thomas hissed. “ If we leave, they’ll find us in the barrack!” “ I don’t care.
