River chewed on some agave fruit as he sat on his sleeping mat in one corner that was more or less intact. Charlotte laid down next to him on her own mat, lightly touching the hilt of her combat knife. The salted earth smell loomed in the air which has become more and more irritating to their noses, but of course they had to deal for another day before heading out.

River knew a few people back home that were raised with similar beliefs like Joseph and the other New Caananites but thought nothing ill of them. It was simply another aspect of the Old World that managed to survive the War. His mother also mentioned a great-grandfather who was heavily into that sort of thing, but obviously that sort of tradition became lost in the family and they've been nonreligious since then.

When a gunshot was heard nearby, both River and Charlotte got up with their laser rifle and revolver respectively but calmed down when Nebi came in and plopped onto her own sleeping mat not too far from the duo. River and Charlotte gave each other a glance before going back to what they were doing just seconds ago.
