[ What Ciri doesn't say is that the area is near where she'd found Geralt when Jaskier had been hurt. When she'd accidentally almost blown his whole damn arm off. Water's scarce out here, so it makes sense to keep to it (but thankfully not impossible to find, and she is grateful for that, considering deserts are somewhat of a very unpleasant memory for her).

They can send the bird out to scout when they're back on the road; right now, it's too hot for any of them, assuming the magic bird is susceptible to such things. Jaskier keeps feeding it and giving it water, so Ciri has assumed it must be. She's also... not entirely sure if the bird is Sam's or Jaskier's, at this point, and she feels wary of trusting it too much. Perhaps she still hasn't quite forgiven the creature for incessantly following her around when she'd wanted space, and Sam for finding her. ]
