Duskfire Glacier sonraun

Although this was not his home, Kigipigak had come to know it pretty well since the villages had worked together. Now he was a guest here with his wife. It seemed only fitting that, while Sakhmet spent time with Lane and the others, he should be at work.

Kigipigak was careful of where he went. He did not want to overstay his welcome or disrupt the natural order of this village. When he went for a late patrol it was to the lakefront, and it was there he found a familiar figure... Except that she wasn't meant to be here, he remembered. This was one of the girls from the hunt who had visited from Rivenwood.

Hail, he softly greeted, unaware that the curve of the girl's body was due to grief, or that the shaking of her shoulders was from sobbing and not cold, or work upon the shore. As he got close enough to hear the cries, he felt suddenly out of place.
Oh. I... I am intruding. He ducked his head slightly, and turned away.
