Cornelisz

Like a determined and weary Centurion, he fights hard to the very bitter end
Obviously not only for himself, his very loyal mate, but also of course, for his precious and endangered species of which he now sees precariously hanging in the balance
For Cornelisz knows, the chances of their survival once he finally passes away, are sadly extremely slim for his beloved species named,
" The Western Australian Christmas Tree " or " Moodjar ", the Aboriginal Noongar name for the tree
Ultimately though, humans do get to have the final last laugh here unfortunately-
However; not in the way that many reader/s would have boldly predicted!
With a little over a decade of absolute terror and total havoc, the deadly Evil Spirit that washed up on the shoreline has finally disappeared for good
With life basically returning to normal throughout the Geraldton and Mid West region; it therefore now allows tremendous relief to be felt by all of it's people once again
Cornelisz may be gone finally, although it has come at a huge cost to the area with many people both now, and in the future, still carrying the vivid psychological scars that he has tragically left behind
For, "The Beast", always wanted to leave behind an unforgettable and lasting special legacy, although; in the eyes of many humans, it definitely has not been a good or positive one to have left
