Ouroboros Spine anatchiaga

im sorry i cannot resist a thread with kigi <3 as long as that's okay ofc

she had been saving something for many moons now. the prized fox pelt, which she had learned to dry and cure to ensure it would be beneficial for a resting place. originally she had thought of keeping it for herself, but the woman was not one for requiring such fine luxuries. the deer and the caribou were plenty for her, there was no reason to hoard.

to know that the family of kigipigak was upon them was enough to excite the sivullik to ensure the pelt was as clean (in both appearance and smell) as possible. 

when she would spot the man, a high-pitched yip of excitement would leave her. "Kigipigak!" she says, trotting towards him with the fox fur draped around her shoulders, akin to how moon woman often dresses. 

truly the two have not spent much time together, but shikoba knew his worth and his strength, his willingness to help above all. she knew a good man when she saw one. kigipigak would receive the same honors and graces that shikoba would give solely to her own brothers.
