So, the story should make it under the word limit of 3,500. I just need to wrap things up with the bugs, make it a bit more like a fable, and tightening up a few loose threads. Didn't write too much tonight because I had to draw the remainder of the week's comics.
Some days I feel like I have half a dozen jobs.
