The human for once is in common cause with nature. You pick a truly despised creature to fault for the destruction of the last tree. Cockroaches are not only despised but truly do spread harm around the world.
The tone of this story, and the voice of the narrative are consistent with a tale of mythic proportions. Well done.

Not all humans are bad. Not all animals are necessarily good. I wrote this story to highlight that, and a few more things..
Your words and support make me feel great.
Thank you very much.
