Ouroboros Spine and some people thrive in chaos

a soft hum lingers in kivaluk's throat as the older man shares ( some of ) the details of his youth: that his parents wouldn't let him leave. the specific age means little to kivaluk, of whom fills in the blanks and assumes that this moonglow man is probably not too much older than the numerical age he gave ( whether he was wrong or not ). still, it seems a bit ridiculous for parents to tell a grown adult ( for in kivaluk's eyes the older man is, without a doubt, an adult ) that they couldn't leave.

lotsa 'em! though it was as far from a specific answer as kivaluk could possibly get. i found a bone! he proclaims though it had been tucked away for safe keeping. though whether the small group would follow the path back that they took to make the journey to moonglow was unknown to kivaluk ( and truthfully, he would likely forget all about said bone in time ).
