Sialuk was ecstatic to hear that she would be there. She felt a buzz of excitement thinking about what would happen and what it would be like. Witnessing the birth of her new baby siblings would surely be something magical, and she knew that time would be sacred to her mother (and to her). Saviguk would not get such a privilege, she knew, and some part of her was excited about that, too. While he was allowed more freedom to roam, or perhaps just did it on his own accord, Sialuk would have her own advantages.

Anaa referred to it as a tight time, and Sialuk nodded. She had some inkling that childbirth was not all flowers and butterflies, and yet it intrigued her. Being there for that special moment was something she now very much looked forward to.
