Gramps let's the others stay asleep, as he knows they all need it, but when his watch end he tells BB to be on high alert as the ones in the tower are apparently not alone, and might have called for backup.

"I guess we gotta kill these folks before they kill us?"
He pokes at his waterskin and looks in his pack.
"Before we run out of food and water. Wonder what they taste like?"

Red taps Gramps on the knee with their beak cocking an eye to the wavering purple sky above.

"Ya know, like frogs. Bit slick, chewy in unexpected places. But, ya pretty bland."
BB considers Gramps' question,
"Well, they probably ain't coming out until reinforcements arrive. I say we jump the reinforcements."
