Ouroboros Spine ukkitchuk ⫇

my own slew of tags for reference, sorry! ;u; I also don't know who all is going to pile in but feel free to assume they hear whatever Sakhmet says in this post if they'd be present! <3

Sakhmet trusted that @Kivaluk and @Akkuma would be busy. Perhaps trailing after @Kigipigak or other hunters, socializing with their extended family of Moonglow. She would encourage @Cerne and @Amalia to do the same. Hunt with the others, learn their ways here so they might bring back the knowledge to Natigvik.

She grew a bit warm under all the attention and yet it was all she had hoped for these last few months.

It is Natigvik, She started with, seating comfortably near Kukutux but speaking loud enough for all present to hear. There is a river below where Duskfire was and we made it home when I...was expecting. The north cleared out once Duskfire moved and the herds were then enough for our little family. Kigipigak once again proved a great hunter, tending to our soon to grow home.

She inhaled the soft scent of lavender, eyes looking around the clearing. She wondered what it would be like to have her own mother here. How nicely @Maegi would fit in among the wise women, Sakhmet thought. How nice it might be to see how far her ruddy daughter had come.

She tried to not dwell so hard upon the thoughts of her mother.

I am at the head of our village as Issumatar, but Kigipigak is my Sangilak at my side. My husband, my...defender.

Only love in her voice, softened by the great circle of women.
