This dreaming tells about fire from our country. Men use fire to hunt for animals. Two men Jakamarra and Jupurrurla went hunting for food and started making fire at Marlungurru.  This is a place in Warlpiri lands west of the Stuart Highway. With their fire making equipment they made fire.  As they grinded their stones sparks and fire just went everywhere.

The fire burnt all the way to Duck Ponds to the north and formed Milpirri clouds, which can make rain.    The men hunted there.
