Ouroboros Spine I'm the bad guy, duh!

i hope you don't mind me throwing shikoba in here!

shikoba has found herself resting for a few hours underneath the foliage of the grove. the puppies grow sound with an endless abundance of love from each of the members of this village. originally, she has planned to bring a fish to kukutux for a healthy and fresh meal versus old cached kills. however, before she could go to wade into the water that was beyond the grove, the call of another rings through the heart of moonglow.

she is quick to see who it could be, considering many have been upon their borders lately. after recent events, she hoped that it would be nothing more than a loner looking for a home. as she comes trotting closer to where the song came from, shikoba could see that aiolos has already beaten her to the scene. and in front of him, a war phoenix of phenomenal size. her burning eyes seem to match shikoba's. hoping to not interrupt too much, she offers a chuff to the two of them as she draws closer.

thankfully, she is able to catch some of the end bits of what the other leader asks about. a boy who has been under moonglow's wing. she takes sides with the lion man, lowering her position as she comes to his aide. shikoba looks to aiolos first before looking towards nyra. "sounds like boy that moonwoman brought back."

she remembers him from kukutux's ulaq, how he ran out in search of the husband while the women's circle came to the duck's aide during her early birth. she wonders who this woman may be in relation to the brindled boy, but stays silent with her curiosities.
