Duskfire Glacier Katimak

I am rather fond of him, the northern man admitted, glancing toward the boy’s mother. I hope I am not overstepping. He is a good boy and he will be a good man, I am sure of it. Issorartuyok was genuine in this. The boy had proven himself to be a child with great honor and love. It showed in the tasks he completed, the way he watched the borders of his village. Veteran would make Duskfire proud one day.

I think that is a very good idea. It will give the village time to grieve and give the hunters time to finish cleaning the sickness from the herds. Or, he had hoped. With the aid of the boys and his own fangs, Issorartuyok believed that they would have the illness wiped from the caribou and their numbers would begin to flourish again. To send off the glacier man and his wife, Issorartuyok would like to make sure his village could eat well and feast with their friends. They deserved more, but this would be a start.
