Her aim is to escape before she is sixteen, when she will either be compulsorily married to one of the Fathers in the name of the Magnifico, or disposed of as unsuitable to further the Holy Cause. She does not know who to trust and wants to formulate an escape plan, but the matter is taken out of her hands when the Father's enemies invade his house and she has no choice but to flee...
