Northstar Vale Odyssey

Saleem fell back on his rump, only a small piece of the otter left in his possession. He shook it rapidly back and forth, an instinct lodged somewhere deep in his brain to ensure that the kill was actually dead.

Words spilled forth from their father's lips as he gave them praise and advice. Saleem beamed, though he still wished he had won "The Great War of the Otter" as he had decided to describe it from now on. Even if Sylianos offered part of his kill, Saleem would refuse it, thinking it wrong to take from the victor when it had not been his right to do so.
