Another factor slipped into his musings: mere hope of escape was unsatisfying after the outburst that had defined maintained a standard expression Prudently, he did not express this resentment overtly. "What I wish I could do is not just get away but get even for the way they make us live … the whole damn set-up. They could just as easy make peace with the Earth colonies.

Later, at what he hoped was the halfway mark, he hooked one knee over a branch and paused to wipe sweat from his eyes. Peering down, he discovered desperately for the branch.
