Keith had no idea if this was the night something was supposed to go wrong or not in the story but he was not going to take any risks.
In the end, Keith decided not to go too far into the Oasis green part so that he could keep an eye on Shinu. He could still see Shinu from his current place in the oasis so he was a little relieved by it.
He soon began to gather the nuts on the nearby trees, not even realizing when he lost track of time and his surroundings.
