"Talk" Walk

He inspected Corvus' paws as the earthen male lied on his side. Well, his paws didn't look good...but it could have been worse. He felt bad for asking him to get up again but once they were at the den he could lie down and not worry about walking until he felt well enough to do it. "Well...your feet don't look good, but it could have been worse. I can treat this...I think." He quickly looked up to look him in the eye, knowing he didn't sound too reassuring but he was sure that he could treat the burns. "I mean, I can treat the burns at least. I've learned a bit from my sister," He offered his shoulder for Corvus to lean on before he slowly led the way. "It's not far at all, I promise. But if you have trouble walking I can always give you a piggyback ride," He joked, that trademark smile coming easily to him despite the situation. Everything would get better once he was able to get him to the den, treat him, and let him get some rest. He'd explain things to his uncle in the morning, but for now his priority was helping his buddy.

He walked at fast as Corvus was able, though he made sure to keep an even and steady pace and kept checking to make sure Corvus wouldn't stumble. His den was only a few yards from the border, and he was glad he hadn't chosen to den in the heart of the territory or it would be a more difficult journey. Once he spotted his den, he gently steered towards it until they were at the entrance. "This is my den...sort of. My sister and I share it, but our spaces are separate." Slowly, he guided Corvus into the main part of the den that he and his sister had carved out. At the back of the large room, there were two openings that led to each sleeping space. He motioned to the one on the right, "My side of the den is on the right, you're welcome to go in and rest there, or you can rest here while I go grab what I need for you," His tone was still worried, but he mentally prepared himself for the task ahead.
