I escaped with the aid of a young woman called Sa'a, who put me in contact with the insurgency she was a part of - I won't get too deep into the politics, but in essence their goal was to topple the regime and install their own head of state. We didn't see eye to eye on a number of things, chiefly the fact that they were terrorists, but they were the only group really capable of helping me. So if I ever wanted to see my homeworld again, I'd have no choice but to aid and abet them in return.
