again revui surprised her with a thoughtfulness she did not attribute to men. a slow blink; her lashes veiled her gaze a moment before she turned it back to the trader. "both." why the words had ceased their flow she did not understand, but slowly as the seconds passed, she realized she was afraid he would, somehow, see her as lesser.

she had been wife before to the hunter of seals. perhaps this was why she was not desired. hydra had explained her choice and her privilege, but had made it clear that she would not force the decision. it was the way of things; kukutux would not argue it. and yet her heart pined somehow for the stability of a husband all the same, fitting each brother into the role if only in thought.

revui, now. "you are to take a wife?" a light question, a vague one. hydra had not mentioned her unchained sibling among the others; she wished more children for moonspear. how would such a thing be, to remain a trader but keep a wife? "i wish to bring honor to moonspear. and i wish to keep my mother's teachings alive."
