Ouroboros Spine hallelujah

Massaraq did his best to repeat her name. Sounding out the syllables, but there seemed to be a lot, as many as his sister had. "Chick-aaaaa-dee." For some reason it sounded familiar. Maybe it was a name that his mother had said before. He became excited at the mention of Kivaluk, feeling the need to explain their other mutual connection. "Kivaluk's my brother - but he's much bigger than me because he's older. Why did he bring you here? Did you not want to come? Where were you before?" It did not make sense, was she exploring too? But then why would be staying? Did she like or not like where she was before, or was she from nowhere and somewhere was better than nowhere.

But when she asked what he was up to he puffed up his chest proudly. "I'm defending the ulaq, but if anaa says you can stay I won't chase you off." He conceded, nodding his head sagely. After all she was hardly an intruder if she was a guest of his parents. Even if he had not seen her before. Realizing that he could not chase her very far even if he wanted to he added mullishly. "I can't go very far without an adult anyways." Even though it had only been a short while that he had been allowed out to the clearing it still felt like he wanted to explore further and further.
