It formed part of his body of work presented in the Bennell v State of Western Australia trial securing native title for the Noongar Nation in 2006. This story was taught to Elder Cliff by his grandfather in Kellerberrin . It tells of a young man who leaves his mother's home to go hunting. As night falls, he realises he is lost, and stumbles across mysterious bones in the bush. He is possessed by the spirit of these ancestral bones, and cannot find his way back to his family until he allows the bones to guide his legs home. Only then can he help his long-lost ancestor to rest in peace. The story is illustrated by Specialist Arts Programme and Follow the Dream students at the Bob Hawke College in Subiaco, Western Australia, under the direction of Elder Humphries' descendants, honouring their father's wishes that his traditional stories be shared with all West Australians, in the hope of supporting Noongar to rekindle their home fires with their mother tongue, their literature, and the traditions it has carried for millennia. A must-read for all those committed to reconciliation and the revival of Noongar language and culture.
