Ouroboros Spine isunnagluk ⦱

Massaraq arrived and nodded at the declaration. He was growing into his paws, and although he was still smaller than he would be full grown he was starting to feel a little bit more confident in his steps. When Kivaluk arrived he was silent and Massaraq was not sure what to make of that. He looked around and recognized that once more Galana was missing. He did not know why his sister had disappeared - whether it was the danger that adults promised lurked out in forbidden corners of the world, or was it something he had done?

The young wolf had not known his sister long, but he had known her all his life. She had played with him, and even if the memories would fade and dull with age in that moment they were sharp and present in a way that only served to emphasize her absence. But he did not ask where she was, as if by invoking the truth of her presence would make it real.
