[ There's an empty house not far. It's in good shape, and miraculously, the water works. It's kind of rusty looking, but it's water, and Royce will take it. The second floor is mostly destroyed, caved in, but there's a nice bedroom that's perfect for laying Gwen out, the abandoned bed left intact.
People stay here all the time, so Royce isn't surprised to find it. He is wary, though. People steal, cheat, lie and kill to get what they want; if someone wants this house, they'll try to take it. Nobody does for now, but the thought lingers.
Royce makes Gwen comfortable, leaves Alfie to look after Mercy. It only takes a few moments for him to set Gwen up and check the wound, and when he does, he goes a little pale. He comes out to find Alfie, intending to tell Alfie while Mercy is otherwise busy playing, expression grim. ]
