But her joyful journey leads her to a dark pond. At the water’s edge, his eyes fall on a discovery that turns his world of innocence and gentleness upside down.
The reality of this world, so colourful and fun until then, is revealed in its reflection.
His adventure is no longer a game, and his innocence has just come to an abrupt end at the edge of this watering hole.
Having lost all hope of finding his fellow creatures, Plum returns to hide in his egg.

Plum listens, wanders around again, calls out to see if anyone answers, and finally hears another call.
