The night was colder than he had thought it would be. Strange, somewhat, that the friendly warmth of it could change so quickly to something dangerous to him. He should have known it would not last. 

There was little shelter, and searching for it would lead to encounters with others he did not want. Still he tried, found places to settle for a brief rest and then moved on. The screens were tantalizing, but he ignored them as much as he could. Shepard's face had not been blazoned across the sky. She was alive, and while he was stuck here he could do nothing for her. Could not protect her, could not give her aid or information or anything. 

If he was in the Capitol - the idea had crossed his mind a few times. It would be more beneficial to her if he died, here, was able to talk to others on her behalf. Nothing had come of it yet, and he knew how well she would take the idea, but still. It was hard to keep entirely out of his mind. For now he kept moving. He had rationed the water Timaeus had sent him, and he did not need much. He had hunted, though the absence of a weapon had made it somewhat risky. He was not well provisioned, but he had enough to keep him alive perhaps a day or two more before he needed to find some way to obtain more. He would have to make a choice of some kind then.
