Lionel was happy to be moving again, albeit towards more gnolls. The previous night he had nightmares about a giant gnoll chasing him round and around the ruins of the campsite. Wherever Lionel had turned the knoll was there to intercept him with big sharp teeth in a drooling, gaping maw. All around him, his friends were laying dead. He could not have saved them. He had tried but the giant knoll was everywhere tearing into the flesh of his friends.
He had woken with a start (probably an extra loud snore?) and couldn't get back to sleep again. Eventually, Helgrim woke up and Lionel listened to the conversation but did not say much. He took his turn as watch and then it was morning.
Finally they were on the road again and, yes, he was happy to get moving again... away from this awful place. However, he was not looking forward to ford the swollen river. What would be easy for an elf, human, half-orc and a sturdy dwarf, would be difficult for a short halfling!
