squirrel. elk. deer. weasel.
kukutux narrowed her eyes, calling to mind each of the beasts that had started to grow familiar. the words still lodged in her throat, however, for they were foreign. her father had seen fit to allow the traders who landed on their beach to teach kukutux and her sister the common tongue; for this was the girl grateful.
but there was still much she did not know, so very much. it was almost dizzying to think of how ignorant she was to the ways of this land. kukutux fixed her mind to other things now, namely @Cry and how he had not mentioned her offer again. for now, she had a small den of her own, with fish drying in what sunlight there was over a flat rock. but she had no husband.
he had, however, brought her an egg and a bird he called 'turkey.' she had thanked him and divided the meat to cure also.
so lost in her thoughts was kukutux that she heard the approach of no creature.
