@Cry first, then any others who want to join <3 (sorry just had muse for her!)

kukutux had followed the shaman across the world, it seemed. they had crossed a mountain range, and then another. the great fish he had caught sustained them, but there was little of it left now. wrapping the remains in the rabbitskin, kukutux had carried it across her shoulders as before. 

the land changed, dropping now into a place of waterfalls and beasts she had never before seen. it seemed her eyes were almost beholding the world of spirits, and she thought upon it when they stopped each night. but at last they came to a great stretch of forest, and cry seemed to grow larger before kukutux. this was his land, and she marveled at how large it was.

he led her into the shadows cast by thickly-laced branches, and the girl was happy to stop, wearied by their long trek. yet she was also nervous, and kept close to the man, wondering when his people would arrive.
