Ouroboros Spine uuktuaktuk ⤏

kukutux studied heph. 

she found the moontide woman to be thorough even when the other was not speaking. she had the mien of one with shared wisdom though she was not a mother. in another place, another village beside the sea ice, heph would have been asked to be irnisiksiiji.

it was not only a place for mothers to be.

a smile alit her face. "tell me when you have the wish for this to happen. i will make sure he is close to our villages."
