Ouroboros Spine Indistinct voice whispering

Norah was the only one among Moonglow, aside from the Ostrega mother and daughter, who had come away from the spear with her life. She had survived because she had been away, much the same as Sialuk had been on the opposite side of the mountain when the strange storm struck. Knowing what she knew of the black wolf, Sialuk did not think that Norah would see this as anything peculiar: just coincidence. Norah did not have a spirit that was open as anaa and Sialuk did.

Sialuk had seen Sixsix earlier that morning, but he had flown off at sunrise shortly after the raindrop's morning howl. She had not seen him since, but that was not uncommon, so she did not worry. Instead, she found herself following Norah's trail to a cliff edge, not unlike the one where they had met for the first time.

Norah, Sialuk greeted, her head bowed momentarily. Although Sialuk ranked above her, Norah was older, and the raindrop firmly believed in respecting her elders, no matter their rank.
