Yesterday’s planned offensive had been called off at the last minute when the group returned from Surrey Quays, Dominic and Piotr both agreeing that it made sense to allow people to rest and refuel. Now, with their stomachs filled and the promise of more food to come, there was no shortage of volunteers to take on the dead again today.
Dominic called an impromptu council session to discuss today’s initiative. The hastily convened meeting took place not in the boardroom for once, but on the roof of 1, St Katharine’s Way, a long strip of a building at right angles to the hotel. From up here, they had a clear view out over the docks, right across the next area Dominic planned to seize back from the undead. As he called the meeting to order he seemed a little subdued, embarrassed, even.
