The Bracken Woods The one of Ice

Answers came quickly, but so did more questions. Kigipigak put thoughts of the buck far from his mind as he focused wholly on this woman, this sister to Kukutux.

My people, the Tartok, they are from the far north where the land becomes ice. Unnuakvik is my home village, but... I left it, and when I found Moonglow and Kukutux, I made my home with them. It was not the whole story but, it wasn't the time to explain in great detail.

I can show you the glacier, he offered, turning to lead the way even before her answer came, if any would. Perhaps in traveling together Kigipigak could learn more about this woman, and decide if she told the truth or not.

I do not know this word, tundrian, but yes, we are all of the north. Those of the glacier are more kin to Kukutux than they are to me, I think. All are hunters.
