Sun Eater called, and so he came. He always did, like the obedient child he never had been for his parents. Now an awkward teenager, maybe the obedience came from admiration rather than the blood they did not share.

In a way, he feared that he was becoming similar to the spirits that he so often scrutinized in the privacy of his wanderings.

Knocked into the snow beneath the chieftain laid a woman he did not know. Close to his age, though maybe a bit older.
