Cool 
Claudius felt her reaching hands cling to her fur to stabilize herself as they descended down the rocks. Now holding her with both his hands, Claudius felt a little more confident that she wouldn’t injure herself along the way. Once they found the source of the stream – there were five in all, but only one was warm – Claudius began to scan the area for a suitable path. Although the rocks here were neither sharp nor particularly ominous, they were slippery, which spelled certain danger for the injured coywolf. He paused for a moment to catch his breath. Once he had determined his path, he nodded to Terra.
“Fuh-foll-o-ow me,” he instructed her. Claudius stepped down one rock and then turned to help Terra down. He let go of her with his one arm, but continued to hold her hand so that they wouldn’t lose contact and so that Terra would have less trouble following him. He made sure that he had a solid footing and held his arm out in an angle that wouldn’t stress it too much. It wouldn’t help very much if her guide ended up getting hurt, too! And after all, Claudius was nothing, if not careful.
