  • It turns out that Safie's dad falsely was sentenced to death for something he didnot do. One day when Felix visited the Turk in prison he met Safie and fell in love with her. Felix decided to risk his life to help the Turk escape. Safie sent Felix letters thanking him for his intention to help her father and recounting the circumstances of her plight. She tells Felix that her mother was a Christian Arab who was captured and forced into slavery before meeting Safie's father. Safie learned to be a strong, smart, and brave woman, which is opposite of how Islam did not want Turkish women to be. Safie wanted to get out, see the world, and be free. So she escaped from near slavery in Turkey and went to Europe to look for a husband. Felix got Safie's father out of prison but got caught and his whole famly was exiled form France. They became poor and moved to a cottage in Germany. This is the cottage where the monster has been eavesdropping. Safie's father had tried to make her come back to Constantinople with him, but she escaped with some money and found out where her love, Felix, was.
