The rumble was weird, but it wasn't the first time the strange teleporting had brought her out into the desert like this. The sisters must want something, like the time she was brought out and checking on the red brother that was face down in the sand.
Tessla hurries to find a higher sand dune and climbs up, looking around to see if she can spot any red brothers... but what she sees instead is an unfamiliar boy. A child, just like her - but she can't sense him.
