Running away

The sight she saw almost made her turn back into the house. What looked like thousands of trees surrounding the house and not a path was clear. Asleem had chosen his hideout well. Roksolana felt that even if all of Jamal's army looked for him in the whole sultanate after he killed their Sultan, they might never be able to get him because of his hideout location. She wasn't even sure if they were still in the Wadai' sultanate or if Asleem had moved them to somewhere else. She was still thinking about how to get away from there before Asleem returned when she heard a loud sound like a whole army cry echoed in the forest. Did the Sultan men find out about the place? Perhaps, they weren't as bad as she thought. When the sound came again, Roksolana tried to discern the direction it came from. She found footprints while looking around.
