"This is the story of the older sister going a long way to get her younger sister and bring her back. They went through many places on the way, but I will only talk about a short bit of their journey at Irrunytju (Wingellina).

They both came from up high and they stayed a while. They both could see that Docker River was close, those two women. And as they were sitting there they performed ceremony, inma. After this they both threw away their weapons and head-rings.
