Ouroboros Spine We're sailing

Like a quiet shadow she followed Kukutux to the clearing, her gaze drawn immediately to the skins that lay in piles- stripped already not only of fat and tissue, but of their fur as well. Nothing appeared to be wasted, only set aside for the time being. She had to wonder how long the fat would last, but did not question that the leader undoubtedly had plans for it. 

When asked, she moved forward, wordlessly slipping into the the cool water and looking down past the mirrorlike surface to see what it was Kukutux wanted drawn out. She held her breath and squeezed her eyes shut as she pushed her muzzle into the cold water, reaching out to feel for the hide with her nose before grabbing onto it with a firm, but gentle bite. Her grasp slipped, at first- the hide was much heavier than she had anticipated, and she'd been too afraid that she might pierce it with her fangs. While it was waterlogged, it was not easy to shred, and she managed as well as she could to help the matriarch pull the hide from the water. 

"I have been learning some from Seal," She commented with a wave of her tail. "I know so little about this...What do you do next?" She asked, keen to learn.
