sirmiq was steadfast in his devotion to family, and so when his father awoke him and his siblings in a fret of panic, the boy did not question why. he did not need to inquire to the happenings to know he would follow chakliux with unwavering steps. 

whatever had occurred was a hateful act, this the boy could tell without any need for explanation. he could see it in the faces of his mothers. in the face of his father. 

he followed silently, a shadow to his father's steps. where directions were given, sirmiq sought to obey them without question.
