Bryda wanted to leave Bishop's Farm for Bristol, where Mrs. I am bright and sharp, grandfather, and I will not become a drudge if I choose my own work. You step into this one-chapter preview with Bryda at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. At dawn I will choose the road, but tonight I will learn who sent the coach. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
