I didn't put all the pieces together until they were revealed, but it wasn't quite satisfying as a mystery; I felt as though I hadn't quite been given all of the pieces to the puzzle in a such a way that I *could* have ever solved it.

I really appreciated the Aboriginal lore and storytelling tradition though!
