Sun Mote Copse cannot help you now

bronco is quiet and savaktuk turns his full attention to towhee as she asks about someone named kaertok. the name draws with it some wisp of familiarity, though whether it is because he once knew him or because the name holds the familiarity of home, savaktuk cannot say. at least, not in this moment. sounds familiar. is all he offers towhee, not committing either way to an answer. there were many that came and went in tartok ...his father and mother included; it was hard to keep track and after some point, savaktuk stopped trying.

a grunt of affirmation is given to the second part — about joining. i'm interested. he vocalizes ...just in case; for he has yet to work out that she was deaf and could not hear his caveman grunt.
