kivaluk is not quite sure what it happening when he is called to attended kukutux — and does not ask as he joins her.

it is only as the pair nears the birthing den that understanding begins to dawn on him.

he lingers awkwardly outside the birthing den, listening to the strange sounds coming from within — trying to focus on the prayers of kukutux instead.

giving birth, kivaluk decides, sounded painful ... and a little gross.

and when kukutux departs back to her own den, kivaluk moves with her, veering off when she is back with her newborn children in an attempt to find a gift for shikoba.
