It was only after about an hour of walking through the dimly lit corridors
that Fred realized that he had no idea whether or not this was the
direction he had come from. It would have been all too easy for him to
have gotten confused and taken the wrong course--after all, one stretch of
these miserable corridors looked quite a bit like another. At first,
Fred had felt as if he was leading the woman, but after a while the woman
seemed to be leading Fred. His only hope, however unpleasant it may be,
was to trust the woman's judgement.
After a while, she stopped to rest and sat down. Fred got out some of his food--he was ravenously hungry. He offered some of his food to the woman, but she turned away from it in refusal. Fred wondered what she ate- -if anything.
