Ouroboros Spine strigiformes

Ever since the cricket incident, Kassuq kept a close eye on his brothers, keeping @Massaraq and @Arrluk at arms length when he could, preferring instead to spend his time with @Galana or @Kukutux . Or by himself.

It was just an over cautious mind, wary about the prank even if it had occurred ages ago in his puppy mind, but he was always on guard.

The growing young man came trundling around the ulaq, his eyes peering through the hefty bushes he’d been laying in, before he moved out into the sun. He looked left. He looked right. Then, he flopped onto his side.

He would soak beneath the sun, happily ignoring his surroundings, until something changed. Even ignoring the present figure of a circling hawk. It didn’t bother him much, the bird. He opened his eyes to watch it, then frowned, deep.

Was it..getting closer?
