Ouroboros Spine BWP: TSS Bones

Ajei slowed behind him but a careful glance back told him that she was still moving forward. Determined to get to the top he forced himself to be slow and careful up the slope. When the light hit him again he felt the weight of the skull press him forward more urgently. This burden was harder to maneuver over the lip of earth but as he craned his shoulders and twisted his head with all the strength he could garner from his spine, feeling the movement all the way down the base of his tail, he managed it.

It was a relief to no longer be carrying the skull and he moved over the lip to help Ajei with her own package and over to be beneath the sky once more.
