Ocean's Breath Plateau cousinness

aww congrats! <3 alsoooo this is the last for me >> for now!

chakliux was once more caught off-guard; all concepts of worship or altar fled him. her eyes were the shade of soft sand beneath snow; she reminded him of winter beside the seal hunter village, when they had returned from their summer hunting grounds.
it had been the place of his birth. 
but chakliux always returned to the snow.
he grew still now, quiet; his eyes were fastened to her own, and the seal hunter wondered if ariadne was able to hear the caribou-gallop of his heartbeat.
in another moment he would find a way to guard her injury while waiting no longer;
he stood.
"i will make you call down the stars."
a quick quirk of his mouth, though the brightberry eyes were wildfire over a sunset sea.
the seal hunter left swiftly and walked directly into the sea thereafter, allowing the frigid touch of winter's promise to calm him.
once, he looked back.
