Another couple days, at least, won't do any harm, and Obi-Wan nods. "Through the rest day, then. I'd like to see some of the area."

He actually had scouted the location before helping sequester Padmé here, but he'd had so many things on his mind, worries about being discovered or questioned, worries about the children and the future, he's sure she could show him things he hadn't paid attention to back then.

It seems like it was so much longer than six months ago, and Obi-Wan wonders which is aging faster, his body or his spirit. Some days he feels a hundred, and every now and then, his body seems to agree with him. A lifetime of fighting - and being injured in various ways - are finally starting to catch up with him.

He never would have wished for the events that have happened to take place, but now that they have, a part of him is thankful for the respite.
