Night Watch Lizards

Not long after the Priestess came back in with a large bundle of meat, far more than they would need for just one meal, the skies opened up again, and a steady light rain began. Not enough to cause more flooding, but enough that it was quickly rinsing off the bus.

"The winds will push the storm away, and help dry out the ground faster. At worst, we might be stuck for one full day, but no more than that before the ground is dry enough that we can move again." He explained, then tilted his seat back and pulled a blanket from the overhead bin, signalling that he was done with conversation for the night.

Bus seats wouldn't be the most comfortable night's rest, but they were dry. So, they split the group into four, giving each of them a three-hour night watch, and everyone did their best to sleep.
