He ties her even tighter!

The Farmer soon returns with something in his hand.

It is a firm piece of leather.

He goes up to Dee and places it around her neck.
She can't struggle much as he ties it tightly around the back of her neck.

This is not a new idea for him.
He's practiced this on other poor ladies.

He knows how to tie it tight enough that they never forget it is there, but can still breathe.

This last part is crucial as he loops a line of rope around a piece of metal on the back.

He ties the other end to the same place on the wall that is holding her wrists up in a strappado position.

Dee tries to stay calm.
Relatively, at least!

He's not going to kill her...right?
Right?!?

She takes in sharp, shallow breaths.
This is not easy!

She knows that she has to survive this in order to one day escape from The Forest.
She has to fight.

The Farmer likes fighters.
He has a way to deal with them.
