Ouroboros Spine iii. out of this home

The birdcaller glanced to the deer spine and the haunches of meat again, her brow furrowing a little uncertainly. "Are you sure?" she asked hesitantly, not wanting to offend him but she was sure there were others who could use it more and she told him as much. "Kukutux or Sialuk likely need it more than I do," she murmured, thinking worriedly of the Alpha's broken leg and how her daughter had tirelessly worked to bring them all together in such a manner. If he chose to rescind his offer, she wouldn't mind. And if he chose to press the matter, she would give in with minimal coaxing -- submissive as she was, besides she wasn't one to usually turn away a good cut of meat. But it felt odd, this taking without giving anything to Adrastus in return. It made her squirm to think of being indebted to any, even the kind icebear.
