Ouroboros Spine tatamnaktuk ⨸

maybe just a cameo or a two-post wonder if she’s addressed or this needs to be added to later but feel free to skip her

She came, of course, when her Alpha’s cry shattered against the skies veiled in stormcloud though it was no small struggle for the heavily pregnant and petite greenpaw to move about these days. Even so, the dove dared not wander too close, for fear that the spirits Kukutux warned of might be drawn to her own vulnerable tiny lives. 

Her gaze flickered reassuringly to Aiolos — even if the dusk-pelted seawolf didn’t see it in his anxiety — before her peridots slid past his ragged, pacing form to the ulaq that housed her sister and newborn nieces. Fallow ears flickered, cupping towards the whelping den as she strained for any sounds from within.

Searching around herself in agitation, helpless and hating it as she searched for some way she could be of assistance. Her emeralds softened when they landed on Alduin’s young and frightened face. He was just a boy — no matter where he’d come from.

The mother-to-be padded to his side, hesitantly reaching down to touch her snout to his inky shoulder — as if uncertain that the battered child would accept even this innocent touch. She smiled warmly when his garnets locked with her gaze. “Would you like to come with me and get some herbs for the women?” 

It didn’t matter if Sialuk and the other healers already had everything they needed, she just wanted to get the brindle away from the possibly traumatizing scene — and show him that a touch of kindness still existed in this world.
