sirmiq seemed rather charmed by the granddaughter of moon woman, which chakliux suspected was her aim. he began to feel an increasing sense of pressure as the explanations in the kind voice went on, felt kukutux guiding a future he could not even yet see.
"sirmiq is young. he is not yet a man," came voice, gruff with reined control over his annoyance. he owed moon woman a great deal. but he did not owe her so many decisions.
still — he saw how sirmiq warmed and felt as though he had lost something here. a small thing, yet large enough to affect what came after.
"he will take his first seal. we will ask you both to the scarification. then we will speak."
chakliux did not know when girls became women among the sunshine people. he knew only he would not rush to marry off his own daughters, or even have a hand in such. it was not his choice to make. first they would be militsik. what came beyond that was only for seal hunter women.
he was uncomfortable to even take part in speaking of nantahala's path. it was not his place. 
now his scarred muzzle dipped to the sunshine wolves in respect. he would hear them speak. he would hear his son speak. and then they would go. upon return to moontide he meant to tell @Marina and @Tullik of moon woman's intention.
