Ouroboros Spine the one who devours

she listens to his words closely and has trouble finding any parallels between rodyn and mojag in her mind. while they are both kind-spirited, shikoba wonders if mojag could even handle such a mission if he were to be tasked. and her suspicions were correct; mojag does not feel the blood of a hunter course through his veins.

shikoba has done her best to not pressure him, but time and time again, she knows that her role is one that he cannot ignore. she walked the path of first hunter and now the path of star hunter. she's upheld the idea of the name and titles being the most important thing. and perhaps this is what continuously felt like a slap in the face to her son. she's given him no options to see the importance of other roles, and this is something that shikoba blames herself for.

"perhaps i will speak with moon woman," she says thoughtfully, "and see what she thinks i should do." she pauses for a moment before looking to her companion. "if mojag was your son, what would you do?" rodyn was wise enough that shikoba could trust his answer, so she was curious about his thought process on the entire thing.
