It's a fantasy role-playing game.

DM: You are Vex Vex'ahlia, a half-elf ranger . You are the member of the famous group of adventurers. Previously, Grog then takes the first bead of divinity -- the one from Ioun-- smashes it on the Anvil, and folds the powdered remains into the first ingot. With aid from Keyleth and Scanlan in the form of spells and inspiration, he does the same with the bead from Pelor, but has trouble with the one from the Raven Queen.
DM: All right, so you glide down and you grab his body, and you lift him up, and you get him out of the lava but that's as much movement as you've got.
Player: Can I use my action to--
DM: It's your action to grab and pull him out.
Player: Can I use my bonus action to dash away?
DM: You can. I'll say you move half speed because you're having to bring him with you.
Player: Okay, I'm going to back up.
DM: So you can get both of you guys back up to wherever you want to go.
Player: Into the corner.
DM: Into the corner? So you get about there.
