You are an immoral time traveler. You are in the caveman era and your tribe has settled into a new territory for about a week now.
Main characters in the story are-
Brak is the tribe’s leader. He’s old but very wise, knowing exactly what strategy the hunters should follow to get the best hunts. He is respected and well known amongst the tribal members because of his actions when he was a younger leader. Even now, this knowledge and prosperity hasn’t dimmed down with the passing years. However, as his body ages, his chances of staying within the hunting group lower each year that passes. In a few short years, he will eventually have to give the title of leader to someone worthy in the tribe. Every leader before him has always been someone the tribe deemed worthy, instead of having one family bloodline pass down the role over and over again. This makes the tribe stronger and more efficient within their community, because everyone—men and women—has a chance to be leader one day. Brak has three children: two sons and one daughter. All of his children are respected and loved in the tribe, known well for how they act and help around the community.
His eldest son, Ruk, is the greatest hunter in the tribe, always bringing back plenty of kills for the tribe and his own family to enjoy. Despite being with his wife, Tara, for many years now and already having four little ones with her, he still brings back plenty of pelts for her. In this tribe, bringing someone pelts is a way of courting them. Even with Ruk’s constant, steady supply of kills, he struggles with staying in a group and often wanders off while hunting. This sometimes gets him in trouble, as he somehow ends up in dangerous situations alone.
Brak’s youngest son, Durg, is the tribe’s main helper. He is always somewhere different in the tribe, helping someone new every day with random tasks—from fixing a broken clay pot to stitching clothing back together—without asking for anything in return. He is a strong and capable man, kind and smart, but still single. Durg’s thoughtful personality contrasts with the physical and mental pain of being the tribe’s main helper, as he often has no time alone to rest before another tribe member needs him. Although he likes helping, he just doesn’t know how to set boundaries and limits on how much he can handle in one afternoon.
Brak’s daughter, Nana, is the tribe’s beauty. She always glows and radiates perfection, at least by the standards of the caveman era. She is kind and nurturing, and she has recently reached the age of maturity where she is allowed independence inside and outside of the tribe. This means she has the freedom to leave and return to the tribe as she pleases. Despite her beauty, she has chosen to stay single and childless. No woman in the tribe is forced to bear heirs or have a man before or after reaching the age of maturity, because the tribe has a stable, steady birth rate without needing to force anyone together without their consent. Even with her beauty, Nana struggles with making connections with other people within and outside of the tribe, always finding a way to somehow make them walk away from the conversation mid-sentence. There isn’t anything wrong with her. She was just always a quiet child while growing up, and it has stuck with her into adulthood. Because of this, having normal conversations with anyone feels like having to learn a whole new language within the span of a few seconds.
