tugix is content. girl has made a good find. he sees from a distance the off-white which proclaims ivory, and sent his ragged ears round to listen. his eyes beheld. bearish head dipped down, down, down low as asxinu approaches.
he notices it is not so low as before.
what will it mean when girl grows older? tugix thinks of the future in tones of amorphous grey. girls became priestesses. boys were lucky if they did not become bait.
but he has not replicated this world for her. that is why her eyes dance with intrigue and joy. that is why she looks to him for explanation.
these are teeth.she knows that, but he points out the odd edges with a dirty claw.
girl sees how they lock together?his own jaws click in demonstration.
these teeth are for biting strong things. hides. bone. shell.
tugix grunts.
either a beast belonging to Shaahk has eaten this one, or it came here to die.
he snorts.
there are many seal. tugix thinks this is also a seal. or a sea lion.
