Gold woman...? Despite the opposite description, all that was on his mind now was Sakhmet; but that vanished and was replaced with Tulukiri's face, and his posture slackened.

It sounded as though something had happened, and between two of his own. They are not yours, now. We are equals here. He corrected himself.

A sigh. I can try to explain.

Tulukiri is young, headstrong, and entrenched in the culture of our people. It is different from Moonglow in many ways - similar, too, but - he did not know how best to say it. I believe that her tenacity bothers Amalia.

He saw nothing wrong with it. That was his own bias coming forward.

Amalia has always been a very committed person to our village. From what I heard from my wife, he looked around again as if haunted, watching the trees, trying to put aside the heartsick feeling of her mention... When I went away, Amalia stepped in to a greater role.

He gave a small shrug. Their first meeting did not go well. Now I think they are rivals of some kind, which is to be expected. Tulukiri being younger. Amalia having a sense of herself and her power.

He wondered how this might help matters.
