the village of the ostregas grew. the duck decided that soon she would go and visit her kangiak osiris, though she did not think the glen wanted anything for itself; they were quite self-sustained. but there was another reason for her travels, as well. it had been a long while since kukutux had spoken with toad amelia, and she supposed there was another thing to mention upon their next meet.
