Gale laughs at Alyce's response, flapping his arms almost comically to try and be rid of the mud clinging to his hands and forearms, though to little effect. At least the rain is washing him off a little.
"At least the lake would have given you a bath!" He replies over the rain, grinning as Dragon stomps a little closer and offers a little protection from the weather. At Alyce's mention of the creature they're out here for, his expression falls a little, eyes darting about the small area he can actually see through the rain and failing light. Getting taken off-guard by that thing is definitely not very high on his list of things to do today, and he nods when Alyce decides to look for somewhere more covered than they are now, out in the open. And hopefully dry.
On the bright side, the sides of mountains are traditionally pockmarked with small caves and alcoves, Gale has found more than a few on this particular landscape in the past, so finding a suitable place to make camp shouldn't be too hard. He lets Alyce pull him along, keeping a wary gaze on their surroundings even as he knows Dragon and Isothaire will undoubtedly be keeping watch with their much sharper senses. Never hurts to be careful, though. That, he knows well.
It's not too hard to pick out the dark entrance of a cave on the cliffside, after a few wet minutes of walking - even with the near dark of rapidly approaching night, and Gale raises the hand not captured by Alyce's hold to point towards it.
"How about there?" He has to shout to be heard over the prevailing wind, even with how close they are, squinting to the side to see his friend's face with how the rain is blowing into his face, "Looks pretty big, might fit all four of us."
