That night, we made the decision to rest. Rest played a significant role in this game. Previous reports indicated that some participants hadn't slept a wink due to fear of being attacked while asleep. They failed to recognize that adequate rest could enhance their performance the next day, leading to their elimination due to sleep deprivation.
Naturally, we didn't opt for rest without considering the risk of being attacked during sleep. Thus, we devised a system to take turns keeping watch. Each person would remain awake for an entire hour before being relieved by another. This way, we could obtain sufficient rest even in such dire circumstances.
Hereon abruptly woke me by nudging me with his foot.
"It's your turn," he declared, glaring down at me.
I rose from my makeshift bed of grass and assumed my watch duty. Meanwhile, Hereon took his turn to rest.
