Veteran listened to Sikuliak's tale with rapt attention. It seemed quite a bit was lost in translation, or perhaps withheld. Veteran might have asked more questions, if Calida hadn't made her gently conclusive remark. Veteran could take a hint; he would let the subject drop, no matter how curious he was about this mysterious inua, not to mention the events surrounding Imaq's loss of limb...
"Calida, do you want to come with us to the border?" Veteran asked. "I want to show Siku my favorite stargazing rock. It's at the edge of the icefield." One of Veteran's clearest memories of Sikuliak was the time he had slept over with Sikuliak's family and they had stayed up late, looking at the stars. Maybe Siku stilled liked to gaze at the night sky.
If everyone was in agreement, Veteran would lead the way across the icefield.
