It has been hours and Black Shawl still hasn't moved. Treasure is lying down in Black Shawl's lodge. She and Qaletaqa are discussing what to do with the tribe. The only conclusion they came up with was to take them home with them. Since Qaletaqa is basically their leader now.
"My wife, are you really going to hunt Black Shawl down?" He hands her a cup of water.
"Yes, in a way I am glad that she had the sense to hide. Not because I have any pity for her. But because she is with child." he sits up, drinking the water.
Qaletaqa waits until she has finished drinking the water and takes the cup from her. "Let's get some rest. We have a long journey home I have to get you back before it gets cold." He lay down beside her, laying his arm over her side and rubbing her swollen belly.
