Ouroboros Spine kanayuurak ⌮

was a pair of elkhides heavier now or had she only grown old?

too proud to call for help, kukutux labored beneath the weight of the skins she carried along her spine, back to the ulaq. there she would stretch them a final time and then fold the work away, ready to be traded at the great hunt. 

a breath, sharp, at her own foolishness; she pressed on, thinking of @Kyrell as the ranks of their hunters waned and shifted. focus should be brought. her mind traveled in half-formed sentiment.
