Ouroboros Spine uivaksaat ⨆

it was true that shikoba was quick to jump toward the violent nature of her own body, but there is always a reason behind it. acts of violence with no purpose are useless and disgraceful to her. with a man that threatens the peace of Moonglow and the prosperity of moonspear, shikoba will not be able to rest easy.

instead of skinning this man for his pelt, the moon woman would rather spare him and keep him prisoner. perhaps even mark him too. and if that becomes the case, shikoba will not be as merciful as she was before with nuak.

"he might be coward and run if we bring more teeth," she says, hoping that the voices and the presence of others will be enough to cause this man to think twice before trying to lay claim by himself, "if we need help, we will have to return it later." this part she says with a tone of caution,  not truly knowing if this vagabond would be worth the trouble of working with in order to secure moonspear.
