Giotto smiled to himself at being let out of the race as he edged up and got an arm around her. "Okay. We'll get you down. See Mr. Sulu down there? He's going to send a harness up and I'm going to help you into it. Then he'll lower you down."
That would be easiest. He figured anyone who went up a wall without a harness didn't know about rappelling. Once she was safely down, he'd tie off the rope he had with him and show her. After all, he doubted this little adventure had cured her of climbing. He'd fallen out of a more than one tree as a kid and it had never really deterred him for long.
"Holding the rope so you can't fall is called belaying," he explained and raised an eyebrow a little. "If you'd gotten someone to belay for you to begin with, you just might have been able to beat me to the top."
