I read a spoiler somewhere that he does end up burning the place down, have no idea if it goes down the route you mentioned though it would be interesting to read. I just hope this story doesn’t go down the stolkholm syndrome pipeline like most of these abusive stories do
I’m jumping for joy! My half asleep rambling might come true
I have a proposition. What if he burns the place down but (hear me out here) with ethanol so no one can see the fire. When Ethanol burns it’s not easily seen by the naked eye. You might be wondering why not a normal fire with gasoline or something else? Well because there’s a chance one of them will set themselves on fire because they can’t see it. A visible fire is easier to avoid. I think the only downsides are that he could also set himself on fire (but let’s be fr here, that’s probably better than what he’s about to go through) and it’ll probably scatter them all making it harder it avoid them. But if it works freedom, they all have to leave, and they’ll be left with nothing for a while.
