So, my hero narrowly evades execution and escapes from the city with the help of his cousin. But after the main action of the escape itself has passed, all that really happens is a lot of rooftop running, guard dodging, wall climbing, and more running, until they get to the forest where they're hiding out. I don't really feel like describing this. While it is technically "action", it strikes me as being boring and repetitive to describe on the page, especially if it follows a scene containing invisible arrows, exploding light arrows, and magical fire. It's also similar to a scene earlier on. Could I just cut to the next chapter and say "they escaped" to skip all that running and dodging stuff? Or would that be a cop out?
