Moonspear Speed Trials

Sialuk appeared puzzled when Ittuk explained the shrine was for the children. He went on to explain that it was not a shrine at all, but toys for the children—a surprise for their morning eyes. The man said they need not know it was from him, and Sia's expression softened. You do not have to be, but you can be father to them, she said. It had been hinted before, but she had never brought the words to the air until now.

Maggak and Acrux were still young, yet. They knew Ittuk's face, but they did not know him as father.

When the Moontide babes are older, I will return them to their village. Acrux and Maggak will learn of our kin. Will you come with us? she asked. It would be a chance for Ittuk to bond with the children.
