Ouroboros Spine puyuk

He felt it was most agreeable that this man show up now, when he was in need of someone. Perhaps this man had been summoned by Kukutux and her spirits? Perhaps god had chosen to send him to the path of Mojag, and the boy held this in mind for later, when he might say a prayer the way Bartholomew used to, and speak to the wind.

The man was laughing and any thoughts to spirits or gods vanished with the sound. Mojag was smiling and letting himself be happy, his tail waving. There was this creature called a turtle, it was like a wide stone with fins; and there were many fish, and sometimes I would watch the wolves of the sea - what my friend Heda called a whale - swimming by, but he was caught and tongue-tied when he heard the man mention women.

Ah! Um, he did not know what the man meant, to want women. It sounded like a riddle and so all he could do was laugh a little bit, and move alongside Chakliux, to watch him for clues. There are many women in my village. I am friends with some of them, and he thought of Callyope, mostly, but did not know if that was what the man meant.
