It doesn't occur to Robert until he's halfway there that running through a snowstorm might not have been the best idea. But he doesn't really care. Helios is hurt and in pain and he's not going to let that happen while he can't do anything about it.
However, pushing his little body so hard - even if he's in much better shape than he was before - in the middle of a blizzard eventually takes its toll. Not more than a few feet away from the door, his foot hits an ice patch, and he ends up plowing face-first into the fresh powder, sending up an almost-comedic spray as he lands heavily on his forearms. It's a good thing that the snow ended up padding the fall.

Yep. Call in the cavalry, indeed.]
