ghelan, akiak. whoever he is, he's come to realize that something about him isn't normal.
the thing that wraps around his leg, a gift from his mother, itches at him. but whenever he yelps and insists on tearing it off, it just gets put right back onto his leg. what was so wrong about that leg that it needed to be hidden?
ghelan — akiak — decides to try again at what his instincts have been screaming at him to do. his little stubs wobble as he forces them to carry his weight. his front legs first, and then his back leg. it nearly gives in, and for a moment he lets the wrapped leg assist. he strains, knowing well of that hurt it causes when he leans on it too much, but sighs when his patience paid off.
he stands still, legs finally steady. just one teensy little problem: what now?
