In "A Worn Path" by Eudora Welty, Phoenix Jackson distracts the hunter by engaging him in conversation about her age and her journey. She tells him a fabricated story about her grandson, which piques his curiosity and diverts his attention from her true purpose. This clever tactic allows her to continue on her mission to obtain medicine for her ailing grandson without revealing her vulnerability or intentions. Ultimately, her resourcefulness highlights her determination and strength in the face of obstacles.
