S4E18 · The Highlanders Part 4
Ben’s escape and Grey’s discovery

The foggy waters near the Annabelle become Ben’s escape route and his greatest challenge. The thick mist obscures the ship’s silhouette, disorienting him as he swims toward the faint shadow of the shore. The cold currents drag at his limbs, the damp chill seeping deep, while the lapping waves and distant shouts from Trask and Grey turn every stroke into a desperate race against recapture. The fog is both his ally (hiding him) and his enemy (disorienting him), mirroring the uncertainty now gripping the slave traders. The waters’ role is dual: a path to freedom and a test of endurance.

Functional Role
