[It's soft and low, gentler and more reassuring than he has any right to be with how much the ring has taken from him. He's already burnt out, already ruined himself beyond repair. If he can take a little of the burden and give Regis some relief then what's it matter if he pushes a little harder?
Thankfully the cabins are not far once they find the path again, though they are a bit uphill. On the incline is the first time that Nyx's bravado fails him, breath hitching as his shattered knee protests the extra weight as well as the extra strain.]
Here this'll be easier. [For Regis, of course. He adjusts them a little, takes a forward step with his left leg, gesturing for Regis to do the same with his right. Then they can draw up even. It's tiring and requires a twist of the hips that makes Nyx's battered ribs scream but using their good legs for distance and merely pulling the injured ones behind... is probably the only way they're going to make progress.]
