Twenty minutes later

we arrive

at a house—

if you can call it that—

made out of

red dirt

and slabs of wood.

Just put your bag down over there, she says, pointing to a

pile of rocks and a pot.

So, where can I find Lucy?

Konko is a big place. There are almost a thousand people

spread throughout it. Most are here, but there are some in

a neighboring community, and a small group in a remote

settlement. Auntie Lucy is visiting there.

In the settlement. Why?

They do not have a lot up there. Even less than we have. She

goes to help. With school. With medicine. With food.

How far is it?

Not—

Yeah, not far, I know. How many miles?

Twenty-five kilometers, but you will need a guide.

A guide?

It’s on the other side of mountain and rainforest. You can

drive for a quarter of the way. The rest is walking, and you

will need a guide.

And where might I find the guide?

He goes up once a week.

When is the next time he’s leaving?

He left this morning.

Can we call her?
