the two paths both seemed to end in a sorrowful story, but shikoba understood the meaning behind both. the world does not stop because a tragedy strikes; she cannot stop mothering her son because grief has stricken her once again. though she may hold onto a weaker heart, she will not allow sadness to consume her entirely as before. life has breathed itself into mojag, and she must continue to allow him to grow.

her eyes fall upon her paws for a moment, praying that the first path is something she will not have to partake in. but if it was, she would sing until her lungs shriveled up and her voice came no more. as for the second path, she is given more freedom to choose how to go about this tragedy, whether it is to allow her husband to return or to turn her back upon his name. 

either way, shikoba knows that mojag has the entire family of Moonglow behind him. even if he does lack a fatherly figure, he will know that his family loves him and that in itself should be enough. the woman remains silent for a moment before returning her gaze to kukutux as she parts her lips to speak softly.

"then shikoba wait. but... if too long, inutsuk will have to prove himself again." it was no lie that shikoba wanted to test to see if the man was suitable material to be the father of her littler, thus with her fishing trip with him and such. normally, small things would go unnoticed and shikoba wouldn't think of the absence if it lasted only a day. but with the length of this one, she was not certain who her husband would be when he would return if he did at all.

"prove that he will not leave mojag, moonglow, and shikoba. what, what does kukutux think?" she values her opinions and is curious about the other's thoughts.
