Ouroboros Spine tulukkam ittuk

hope you don't mind me stealing this! <3

several days have passed after the birth of the twins. shikoba often busies herself with endless tasks, usually including remarking the borders practically every day as she weaves through the territory. though today, her sights were more fixed onto hunting. she had spotted a pair of foxes, most likely a male and his mate, scuttling around the base of moonglow.

while one may leave these beings alone, shikoba is on a level of high alert. with kukutux's new brood and soon to come löté's, there is good reason to be extra cautious of the other animals within the territory. besides, fox pelt make for wonderful beds when treated and cured properly. shikoba thinks of this opportunity of getting 2 birds with one stone -- she dismisses moonglow of their foreign invaders while providing new material for kukutux and löté. 

on her way, she notices a large male in her horizon. a coat made of snowdrift and... what's this? shikoba peers for a moment to notice the scars on his face, causing a ripple of sensitivity over her own. another face marked by life's unpredictability. with a slow trot, she calls out to him in a warm greeting, hoping to get his attention.
