The three main plot twists in my story are a new threat when the worst of a group of bad guys becomes so enraged at the protagonist he commits to pursue and kill her and massacre her people; a perilous escape executed against overwhelming odds; and unexpected support when a servant proves to have better survival skills than the protagonist in a certain dangerous situation.
