The Last Tree Standing

In the heart of Brookville, a bustling city of glass and steel, there stood an ancient oak tree, a silent witness to the passage of time. The tree was over 300 years old, with a gnarled trunk and sprawling branches that spread like a protective canopy over the small park that surrounded it. It was the last of its kind, a relic of the vast forest that once blanketed the region.
