This story comes from the wise and ancient language of the First People of the Western Australian south coast.

An orphaned boy is struck by a djanak, a devil of Noongar Country, and burnt on a fire and eaten. Afterwards, a mysterious whirlwind lifts up his ashes and he is reformed limb by limb. Wirrawoorliny is a story about how Country, language and spirit can guide young people home.
