As the rain started falling heavier Cheddar thought it was time to get things moving.
Cheddar: "Alright, lets get moving to where the trees are thicker. We're likely to still get wet but at least not as wet. Once we find somewhere a bit drier we can see about fixing the tent. Then when it stops those of you who can hunt can try and find enough food for us all."
He pointed his staff at the bushes under a thicker part of the trees and anyone watching closely might have sworrn they'd reshuffled themselves about a bit to make a very thin passage through. "If our shelter's better hidden it'll be harder for the industrialists to track us down. We're lucky that none came to see what caused my signal, but that doesn't mean they didn't see it. hey may be waiting for the storm to pass, or to use it as cover. We mustn't underestimate our hunters."
So saying, he stepped down the narrow path he'd created and waited for the others to follow. Albert headed after him with a brief smile at Hadda.
