Henry, a roach nymph of ten season cycles, sat at the slanted work surface in New South Dairy Colony 50’s training center. This segment of the series is focused on the narrating character, Henry Roach-Dairier, whose roach father was adopted by ants. The grandson of the first Henry Roach-Dairier takes up the torch of writing the ants’ past, how enslavement of one colony brought the colonies together. Two generations after The Re-Creation of Roacheria, Henry Roach-Dairier II becomes fascinated by his grandfather’s telling of how the ant colonies came together into one super colony. Enter the world of Henry Roach-Dairier, a world where humans no longer exist. Insects, greatly enlarged and intelligent, dominate. Ants live communal lives, dedicated to each other, while roaches are materialistic and self-centered. Twenty-year-old Lily Atwood Haynes stands alone at the helm of a shipping company.
