Ouroboros Spine you don't smile anymore

forward dated to the next night!

the world was asleep; the moon was at its highest point, peeking through the clouds with a faint glow. there was mild irritation at the lack of stars, but galana still admired the setting from beside the firemother. there were nights where the girl would sleep away from the ulaqs, rather restless and only falling tired after occupying her mind with late walks.

galana continued to feel the disconnection with most of moonglow, save for her brothers and her new friend ajei. kukutux's absence was beginning to cut her as deep as sakhmet's. she wished the woman would return already. she failed to understand what could be more important than the spine. surely nothing! galana believed that she'd seen all, but desired to feel things in all its intensity. boredom began to settle under her skin, just as bothersome as the confusion.
