You and Javier had been evading the authorities on horseback before deciding to continue on foot. You remembered an abandoned house where you could hide that you had come across a few days earlier.

You left your horses behind and hurried into the house. It was a large house. Upstairs, you entered a room where you discovered a massive box, presumably used for packing furniture. It was just big enough for both of you to squeeze into and stay hidden until the authorities gave up searching.

"Is this a bad timing to tell you I'm claustrophobic?" Javier gasped, either from the exertion of the run or due to his growing panic caused by the confined space.
