Ouroboros Spine in a battle, that's all you get

kukutux's daughter settles by her mother and falls into silence and for the moment, wintersbane turns his attention solely to kukutux. he accepts kukutux's words with a grateful dip of his head and thinks to himself that he hopes it lasts. he has known nothing but hardship since the hour of his birth; too early into the world. he can only hope that he is strong enough to continue to stand against the witchdoctor's curse as it continues to haunt him again and again; then again he is the witchdoctor's son and what else is he to expect?

eventually, something had to give and peace would find him. perhaps even happiness for more than a few weeks.

i hope they find you soon. wintersbane tells them both sincerely. the not knowing would drive him mad; but he understands that the spear might still be unsafe, the land unstable. about three, maybe four days. wintersbane says.
