Ouroboros Spine pivalliak ⧃

kukutux carefully split the rabbit's chestbone and pulled away the heart. she chewed this, droplets of scarlet rushing along her chin, down to chestfur — she closed her eyes and pushed the remainder of the carcass into the cache, whispering a silent prayer with stained lips, in thanks for the sacrifice of the animal's spirit.

she suddenly felt the pressure of unseen eyes upon her, but did not look up. kukutux covered her kill and turned her back upon it, melting into the woods.

there she stopped, and this time secluded her own self, to watch the cache and see if wayward nuak would show his face.
