"Hold onto the railing. Let me check it," Damon instructed.

Once she was stable, he crouched down to examine her ankle. Seeing that it was swollen, he frowned. "It's swollen-you probably sprained it."

He stood up, turned his backpack around to the front, and crouched down again. "Get on my back. I'll carry you down," he told Nyla.
