Ouroboros Spine salapkiksruk

Kigipigak fetched the items needed for the naming ceremony. While he was gone, Ariadne kept an eye on the children. Your aapa will be right back, she assured them. He is getting something exciting for you! Playthings! And you will each pick your favorite one.

@Atausiq went first and claimed two items, and Ariadne shook her head and laughed. My daughter! What a choice, she spared a glance at her husband. You will be Akmaaksi—my fire starter daughter!

@Malguk was next, and she picked the feather that Akmaaski had. She smiled softly, the corners of her mouth growing. My other daughter—good choice! You will be Nutuyikruk—my lynx daughter!

With that, only one child was left to decide, and Ariadne looked at him with warm eyes. You've got this, my son, she said, her voice soft.
