Moonsong Glacier cowboy like me

While the events upon the edge of Moonglow had not panned out as he had hoped, the conversation with his son had afforded Kaluktuk a glimmer of something. In the days to follow there would be much talk of his hunting, as he was focused on obtaining the bride-price; but also, Kaluktuk saw how the meeting with the moon and sun of the village had left Ariadne—so for the time being he would put aside the wants of Moonglow and focus upon her.

She was resting; there was sickness in the air. Kaluktuk approached with a bundle of food and, surprisingly, a collection of flowers, for her. While his focus was on providing her a fresh meal, the man wanted to lift her spirits with more than the bare necessities and as he had returned from his hunt, he had spotted some white flowers, and some yellow, and then a sad looking blue thing, all hidden among the trees. They weren't in the best condition (actually, they looked terrible).

He laid out the meal for her upon stone, the way she had presented the fish when they had dined together last. Wordless.
