A good ten minutes passed before they came to the first slightly-dangerous crossing. Perrine turned to Anthony then and instructed him to hold his lantern away from his body and to shield the side of it closest to his face with one hand. She'd had lanterns break on jumps before, but she'd found by doing this, it was highly unlikely that the lantern would break unless one dropped it. Perrine took a few steps back, then jumped. The crossing was only four feet, but landing on the sand on the other side was another matter entirely. She knew by now to land with one leg bent and the other straightened out but loose; this position would allow her to land with the balance of a cat landing on all fours despite her own two legs. Straightening up and stepping a little away from the water once she was on the other side, Perrine turned and waved for Anthony to follow her. "Do what I did, land in a crouch with one leg and keep the other straight out," she said, "and don't forget to be careful of the lantern." Perrine put her lantern down beside her and extended both hands, settling her weight into her heels in case he needed something to grab onto when he jumped- she just hoped he wouldn't forget he had a lit lantern in his hands and smack her with it on accident.
