Ouroboros Spine a gnawing feeling

for @Kukutux if you have time <3

inutsuk has been gone.

shikoba is not sure what has driven him away. and while the sivullik has done her best to remain as a strong firsthunter and an even stronger mother, she cannot deny the feelings of guilt that ripple in her heart. why did he leave, and without a word to her or his son? had he done something wrong, did he reap bad memories of his past?

even if that were the case, it would be unfair to do that to a child who has no knowledge of this. shikoba is not sure what to think. the more mojag grows, the more she worries about him lacking a father figure in his life.

it is with this concern that she seeks out the wise woman who has given her so much, in hopes of receiving some help. within her maw is a white-bellied fish, dripping with water and blood that she had caught from the lake. an offering, a payment. 

she would move towards the ulaq of the woman in hopes of finding her and her brood.
