This other brother, Solpallur, sounded like many of the older men within Unnuakvik which could have been a blessing had such an archetype not been so intimidating for Kigipigak; his mother was much the same way, brooding and hard-hearted, so that Kigipigak tried every moment to bring her happiness in whatever way he could. He had done so by culling the weakness from the village and earned a rare word of thanks in return—then banishment.

It was useful to keep in mind that Solpallur did not speak common well. As these far-north wolves of Tartok held a language all their own, it felt fitting to Kigipigak that there be something secret that he shared with Valmua in turn. They could speak openly of their plans so long as Stjornuati was not within earshot. 

That will make things difficult, Kigipigak remarks as he works to keep up with her pace, quiet for only a few breaths. But not impossible. A flash of amusement in his gaze; much like this path they now carved, together the pair would find a way to get what they wanted.
