Ocean's Breath Plateau song of storms

it was ended for him, in that moment; had he arms he might have placed her down in their sleeping place. hunger forgotten; a new one becoming known to him in all portions of desire. 
"i will make sure you rest after."
mouth to cheek, to throat, to shoulder; her pleasure was his to bring in utterance or movement.
time, taken; time, given; on the exchange of soft breaths the seal hunter realized he had softened for tullik in the same way love had shaped him for nasamik.
this revelation added impetus to his love of her, for her;
salt to stars, sky to mountain; seal hunters dancing.
