I mean, Belissar totally isn’t forgetting how to people as a dungeon master focused on his bees. So, you know, he definitely doesn’t need any reminders of how to people! Definitely not!
Anyways!
How will the bear people respond to the herbs? H...

Time to get that grindset, Belissar! We want to see you pump those numbers up! Because, you know, it’s not like a normal person would specifically want to avoid life-threatening situations instead of specifically seeking them out.
On the other hand, it means risking the bees...<...

You know, I was originally gonna make Belissar more of a classic, kinda sociopathic dungeon master for whom lives of bees >>> lives of people. But then I realized that the classic dungeon approach didn’t really work give this world’s dungeon lore. After all, if dungeons are...

Tutorial 2.0! Because tutorial 1.0 definitely didn't leave out a bunch of extremely important mechanics or anything. But it’s fine, that’s what the wiki is for!
What’s that? Belissar doesn’t have access to the wiki?
Weird. Well, I’m sure someone has wri...

It’s ok, Belissar. Not everyone sucks as much as most of the people you knew. And, uh, tend to be nicer when you have a monster army flying over their heads.
But well, boy’s trying NOT to be inspired by the Tower Lords, which means awkward confusion it is! Maybe if you find a ...

Oh, we’re back to calling it dungeon master now, huh? Welp, there goes the unique-ness of the setting. Maybe the bear people have their own name for it or something.
And thankfully, we’ve determined the bear people are, in fact, people! Only for, um, Belissar to remember he do...

Oh look, it’s people. Yay, I guess? I mean, they aren’t bees, so do we care?
Oh, and they’re people who aren’t supposed to be people and maybe putting Belissar through a major worldview collapse, or something. Just one more reason not to interact with...people! 2023-10-24 20:06:00 +0000 UTC View Post

Meanwhile, the Firstborn is pleased to learn how generous the First of the Fifth is, helping her build an even stronger army! How wonderful! And Niobee’s just happy everyone’s getting along!

Wonder what the Firstborn thinks of her soldiers going stronger. At least we know she’d approve of this choice!
Well, technically speaking...all the bees approve of all the choices. Cause the King made them. So, you know, choose wisely, Belissar, they’re counting on you!
Author's Note:
Well done, soldier bees. Your sacrifice shall not be forgotten.
Anyways.
What shall Belissar chose for the reward? Will the bees come to understand honor and grief? Will The Firstborn of the Second Dynasty of the First Spawner build the finest army in all bee-kind? Tune in nex...
