Sasha has been gone a long time, according to Freya. She sits in the tent. She doesn’t like being alone in the desert. But it is a chance for a rest after such a busy trip. She feels exhausted after all the activity. Suddenly an emu arrives and settles down outside the tent. It has brought several chicks, so it must be a male emu. The night is peaceful and the emu says nothing, but it feels like company.
