Sequoia Coast green fire

figured they could do a travel thread! <3 lmk if u wanna teleport instead tho!

carefully chakliux tucked the corners of the cormorant-skin suk around @Marina's shoulders. it was not so cold here, the day long and warm, but the surf was still brightly cold from its travel through the sea ice further east.
they had left the morning before, camped in a small bay, and now found themselves in the loud-voiced land of snarling sea lions. "a little different than seal meat," he told her. "heavier flavoring to the meat, not as soft or tender as seal."
in mischief he looked at his pretty wife, how her eyes shone like gemstone against the black backdrop of the cormorant feathers. "would you like to find out?" reckless! to hunt sea lions alone, but if it might bring marina a moment's pleasure, chakliux would chase them all into the brine.
