Investigating the camp would take some time, and Sak'bas would've let him know that the only relative in the camp would be her mother - her siblings had gone on to other tribes, to ensure mixing of bloodlines, and her father had passed away in a hunt, before she had left. The 'sister' comment came from the simple fact that the tribe treated all of its members as family, particularly those who had worked, or grown up, together.<br/><br/>Her mother, on the other hand, looked much like Sak'bas did, and would give him a good idea of how she might age, working as a weaver, among a gaggle of other older women, all of whom were curious about the newcomer, and the soon-to-be mother of their tribe.
