Callan wasn't sure what to do if the human actually started crying, but thankfully it seemed okay for now. He softly rubbed his back as the male apologized, hoping that he was comforting him at least a little, if a bit clumsily. He nodded as Elliot mentioned his head and his leg, but at least it didn't seem like he'd cracked his skull open or anything frighteningly severe. He felt Elliot cling to his shirt and so he held him while he regained a bit of strength before finally readying to head back.<br/><br/>He carefully got Elliot up onto his back and ensured that he wouldn't slide around too much before starting the hard walk back up the way the vampire had come down. Normally carrying a human should be no issue for a vampire, but right now Cal was little stronger than one himself... No doubt Sol would mock him a bit for this little incident and cite it in the future as well. He shook the thought away and listened as Elliot spoke again and he nodded before speaking. "No need to apologize. I'm simply relieved and grateful that you are okay given... What could have been a far worse fall." He said softly as they finally returned to the top of the path and Callan started back to the cabin.<br/><br/>The walk was long and exhausting, the vampire's body feeling heavy even as the sun finally set behind the trees and the night fell around them. They arrived back not too long after sunset and Cal got Elliot inside and to the bed where he carefully set him down. "Shall I help you undress?" He asked, the other's clothes a mess from the dirt and debris. "I will get you something to drink and eat as well, though you will have to wait for Iris to arrive before I can give you anything for the pain i'm afraid." He murmured, reaching out to touch the other's forehead to ensure the incident hadn't left him feverish. He was a bit concerned that a carriage wouldn't make it out here tonight even though they weren't too far from town... But even if they came during the day he would simply need to tolerate it.
