Her reaction was more concentrated than he expected of someone her age. The words were pointed, exasperated. It was apparently a common question and simply by asking, he introduced doubt about his pledge to Tiuttuk. Glaukos regards her a moment while he's inches from the dirt, and as he resumes his investigation he answers.

I only ask to make conversation. There is not much else here to speak about. Clearly he had hit upon a nerve.

You are loyal to the mountain, which was only land; but Glaukos had been privy to the rise and fall of other people, some who coveted the land greatly, others who were focused on their own blood. He knew what loss felt like — and maybe Tiuttuk battled with what limited, but poignant, losses she had faced so far.

Why did you choose the mountain over your mother? He was curious - although perhaps he should have been more compassionate with his phrasing. Glaukos did wonder why Sialuk would go, but leave a daughter.
