Moonsong Glacier i. i'll wrap up my bones

Lótë. Sialuk commits the name to memory. I am Sialuk Ostrega. It is harder now to say her second name, and Lótë's question makes obvious that her emotions are not well-hidden, as they should be. Frustrated with herself, but too weary to scold herself, she responded in a way she knew how.

Hardship has come upon my kin and I. Our home was struck by a strange storm, and we were displaced to a ring of small mountains. This is where we stay until our surviving kin find us. And if there were no survivors? Sialuk did not know, and she did not wish to think of it now. There was still hope that they may find one another. The days marched on, and Sialuk and Kukutux followed with heavy, hopeful hearts.
