Paul was not awake. However, he also wasn't where he had fallen asleep. Instead, he was up on a tree branch, sprawled out with his limbs hanging off both sides. It seemed quite strange that he climbed the tree or something during his sleep, but in actuality Corona took control for a few hours and climbed onto the branch to look at the sky. The branch was actually quite long and stuck out from the tree over the water, giving quite a clear view of the sky.
