The late arrival in the morning hours of the bunkhouse has seen Pioneer blissfully ignorant of the overnight events. He rises, finds the bunkhouse deserted except for another sleeping soul, and begins to move out. From the conversation he rationalizes something has happened at the Castle.
He wanders the perimeter fence, this time watching the walls of the Castle like a hawk and not like his previous quick glances. There are still no guards about, like there were last night. The fence winds around and he finds himself at the hastily repaired breach point. The craftsmanship is present, but the earth has not assisted. There is still the trench, and with the soft soil, a little digging could enlarge the gap for one or two men to get through. It may be time to discover where the water stream behind the privy flows to, and discover if there is something beyond the compound. Pioneer goes in search of the Petty Officer, no British man dare escapes without permission.
