Dust was in the middle of unpacking when he was told to stop.  Her reasoning didn't make sense to him.  It was better to set up while their was light and they could see. he looked around the grounds.  He would want to build a big fire and keep it burning if thy camped here.  "You hired me, your the boss,  I would recommend we camp here and build a big fire to scare anything off, if you want to spend the night in the woods I'll keep you safe."  He looked back into the forest, he still and the feeling that something was watching them.  It didn't fee hostile, but it didn't feel completely friendly either.
