Koala

“In the Undertow she is the Last Ones' gentle grazer: slow, sweet, and always reaching for the next leaf.”

A Root echo of The Last Ones

The living story

The story so far

Megaladapis edwardsi: the giant koala lemur, 180 pounds — the size of an orangutan — browsing the forests of Madagascar with a koala's face and a giant's appetite. Koala has kept the whole program: in the Undertow she browses Cactus's memory-gardens, reaching the high leaves with long grasping arms, serene as only a leaf-eater can be. The Last Ones' gentlest grazer. She remembers the forests — the real ones, the green ones — and she tells the young ones about them while she browses. 'The leaves,' she says, 'are always there. You just have to reach.'

Personality

The Koala within

“Koala reaches for the next leaf, and remembers the forests.”

Gentle, serene, and sweet to 180 pounds — the giant koala lemur, all huge koala-face and long grasping arms, browsing the Undertow's memory-gardens and teaching the young ones to reach.

gentle, serene, slow, sweet, browsing, wise

Loves
the garden, the high leaves, forest stories
Can't stand
bare branches, hurry, forgetting
How they befriend
She'll save you the high leaves.
When you're having a bad day
She'll take you browsing — slow, serene, reaching — until the world feels green again. The leaves are always there. You just have to reach.

How they’ll greet you: “Oh! Come browse. The high leaves are good.”

A keeper’s whisper: Koala once tasted a leaf like the lost forests. She goes back to that branch, hoping.
