Invisible String - Jake Sully

Epilogue (Edited)

Tawn walked towards Kiri with gentle eyes, "Come here, my strong little warrior," she smiled softly at the baby in Kiri's arm, reaching out to Kiri.

Kiri smiled and gave her little brother to Tawn.

"Ma little Rami," Tawn smiled at her youngest son, who cooed at his mother, making grabby hands at Tawn.

Rami te Suli Tsyek'itan was born six months ago, right after the eclipse after long and enduring labour.

When Tawn asked Jake to name their little boy, he immediately refused, saying he didn't want his boy to have an earth name. Tawn was confused since she loved his ikran's name.

She tried to persuade him, saying he could name the little boy after his twin brother, but his resolve was made. He tried to negotiate with her saying if any of his human friends asked, he'd tell them his name was Tommy.

She was even more confused by his idea. Nevertheless, she still wanted to name him something that would remind her family of their old clan.

Tawn remembered the floating mountains that Jake and the kids wouldn't stop talking about. She knew the mountains were remarkable for the Omatikaya, so she decided to name him Rami after the word Ram, mountain, in Na'vi.

With that name, she hoped little Rami would always stand firm like the mountain and withstand anything the world threw at him. 

"It's not fair that Ram has all your attention," eleven years old Tuk whined, hugging her mother's waist while glaring at the baby in her hand.

Tawn smiled softly at her youngest daughter, "All of you have my attention," she said, earning a scoff from her youngest daughter.

Kiri sat down beside Lei'la, muttering something under her breath, earning a laugh from the girl next to her.

Tawn, Ronal and Tuk looked at the two of them strangely.

"Did you finish making my necklace?" Tuk asked enthusiastically, walking to their crafting station, "I can't wait to show Kiki about it. I bet she's going to get even more jealous than last year," Tuk smirked, her eyes running through the collection in her mother's station.

Ronal chuckled, her index finger softly stroking the baby's cheek, "are they still on it?"

Tawn sighed, nodding, grabbing a beautiful patterned dark blue cloth for her baby sling and put Rami securely in it.

Tuk had now grown up into a beautiful and intelligent young woman. She always aced in her warrior training and Tawn also noticed that Tuk had an affinity for trading. She found it fascinating enough to gain her attention. 

Since her crafting skills were much better than before, Tuk liked to trade her crafts for anything she needed with the villagers. Once, she managed to trade a wood basin for a beautiful crossbow that looked as if made by the demons themselves. 

She was smart and resourceful. And she knew how to use it to her advantage.

Tawn and Jake were concerned about Tuk's new passion, but they didn't dare to stop her since she was stubborn and hard-headed. 

"You can wear it, Tuk, I need to finish this one for Kiri and then we're going," Tawn said, nodding at her to take the necklace.

Kiri crawled to her mother, wanting to know what she had made for her this year, "Are we going to match again?" Kiri asked, looking at the beautifully crafted bracelets in her hands.

Tawn always made sure that her family wore matching jewellery at every ceremony. She already gave the boys theirs yesterday since they needed to leave in the morning for their hunt, and she did the rest today, "yes, and you're going to love this one cause I made it with your favourite shells!" she grinned, showing it to Kiri.
