As the figure stepped closer, as they moved from the ice-coated entrance to a shadow and then a shaft of broken light from far above, their coat was not just black but a strong red-black; their face, briefly lit, held bright doe-eyes that shone like a winter storm.

Sakh...met? He was not aware that he was saying her name until it echoed around him in the expanse. Nor did he notice rising to his feet, cumbersome at first, then powerful as he moved to close the distance; but Kigipigak did not go so close as to touch her.

It wasn't that he chose to be reserved in the face of their reunion, but he was overwhelmed by this twist of fate and was stupefied by her nonchalance — compared to how his chest ached now when faced with that look of awe, Kigipigak was utterly lost.
