Ouroboros Spine The Heart is a resilient creature

Mostly for @Kukutux, but all welcome.

Rodyn carried with him some sea meats and furs. Sea otters, a few gophers, sea lion fat luckily that one had been old and angry and he had been reckless because his chest hurt. He still bore a cut above his eye and one upon his paw from the beast. The one on his paw and leg particularly frustrating. It was deep and kept breaking open the scab. It would surely scar.

He found himself at the edge of the territory and sighed as he howled to let Moonwoman know he was entering her pack lands. And he headed straight for her Ulaq. Normally he would wait by the territory. But these meats were heavy, the furs pressing against his shoulders. His maw ached from carrying and his leg needed rewrapped as it bled freely again.

rodyn came to her, injured.

he was alone, and her heart was sobered to see him. her law-son was not a forceful man; he was a kind man, a wolf of good soul despite the fact that his great wealth entitled him to be whatever he wanted.

did he suffer for this?

he crossed their boundary-lands and she moved to greet him, silently asking to take up some of the salt-smelling delicacies he had brought.

in silence, the duck felt. they would keep it until rodyn spoke.

His feelings upon seeing Kukutux's kind face were two fold. Shame filled him for the injury he bore, for it had been a moment of recklessness of which he usually did not do. And he felt relieved. Because she was constant.

I maybe moving The pack. Another child was stolen. She has been since returned, but she is traumatized. But I grow weary. We are mostly women and children. I do not have many fighters, nor did I ever think we would need them, but.

He sighed and shifted. But also I must speak with the rest. I do not know if the rest will want to leave. Even part of me does not. But two children.l, Moonwoman. Two.

He cleared his throat. I visited Neverwinter Forest. I left gifts, then returned home. I had promised Panuk and Callyope I would help woth moongrove. But these wolves are not moongrove. So I will no more. and that part he left quiet after that. She would know what he meant.
