Beero, the dronecaster, and the battlecasters did not take long to arrive. Wardmaster Varilold smiled at the sight as she barked out commands to the wardens. She turned back to Belissar and Beero and waved them over.
“If you would follow me.”
Belissar complied and the battlecasters flew along with him. The war...

Tarwantrad rushed up to Belissar as soon as the signing was over with a big smile on her face.
“Finally! Belissar, want to see the rest of my dungeon now?! I can show you the Compact too!”
Only for an armored hand to clamp on her shoulder.
“Sorry to interrupt, but I’m going to have to cut in, Tarwant...

The Fourth of the Seventh had the bee golem spread its wings wide. Nomadic bee soldiers and workers stood on top of the golem and began to beat their wings. A gust of wind picked up and wrapped around the golem, swirling into a cyclone under its feet.
And then, one by one, its legs began to lift off of the ground. Belis...

The next day, Belissar left the Apiary farmhouse to make his rounds through the Tower. He only took a few steps, however, before he saw something new. His jaw hung open.
“This…is…”
Outside of the First of the Fifth’s bee apartment stood a new beeswax golem, with the First of the Fifth’s Fourth Daughter...

Hi all,
Sorry for the bad news but making an executive call. Thought I could make it till next week...but I think I've gone without a break too long. Throw in the funeral coming up and all the family coming in for it and I feel I haven't been giving this week's chapters the focus they deserve (and to be clear, not just ...

RETCON ALERT: Thank you all who reminded me that Belissar already selected Rest Zones in an earlier chapter. I’ll have to go back and edit last chapter with a new option. For now, let’s assume he selected random resource plant and got a random flower of some description. Or maybe a tree. We don’t have m...

The meeting quickly devolved into Belissar, the karnuq, and Sehfitis asking the spiderkin as many questions as they could think of. They did discover, however, that the mana learning wasn’t perfect and the spiderkin didn’t remember all the exact details of her ancestors’ lives. Still, they managed to learn quite a bit.<...

The daily purification went off without a hitch, which brought Belissar to the purification celebration. He…hadn’t realized it until now, but this would be the first meeting between the spiderkin children and the karnuq unless he was willing to exclude one of them. He was not, and so that brought him to the present situat...

Belissar opened and closed his mouth repeatedly without saying anything as the spiderkin girl danced about. Fortunately, his mind was jolted back into functioning by a message from the Tower.
Accept offer of allegiance?

Belissar called over his council to help him look over the counteroffer in more detail. Sehfitis furrowed his brow as he read it over, causing Belissar to raise an eyebrow.
“Is there a problem?”
Sehfitis grimaced.

The next morning, after his morning routine, Belissar went over to the hunting field. The butcher queens flew out to greet him as he approached their hives. Squads of butcher soldiers carried slain rabbits to the corpse area nearby. Belissar tried his best to avoid glancing there, as he knew the butcher workers were hard at w...

After a great victory celebration focused on the Firstborn, Belissar and his council gathered to discuss the God of Bees’ rewards. The karnuq had built and set up tables for the celebrations at this point, so they sat around one of those. A bowl of the sleepy chamomile infusion sat out for the queens to drink once the meeti...

Setting up the new room didn’t take that long in the grand scheme of things, so Belissar had plenty of time to resume his magic practice from yesterday. He sat just outside the Apiary farmhouse and ate a spoonful of swirled honey, focusing his attention on the mana within it. He then formed a spell drone and a honey-forming...

Belissar still had two thousand DP left, enough for room feature choices if he wanted, but he decided to wait for now. With any luck, they might complete some of the gods’ missions before he had enough to afford the other choices, which could inform what they decided to purchase next. The council thus adjourned, as it was a...

Velebee flew out of her hive and immediately began dancing.

Belissar went about his day in a good mood. The Second of the Sixth had finally asked his permission to try evolving, meaning both that all the wounded bees and karnuq had stabilized and that they might have a new queen type soon. He was just finishing up his morning rounds through the Tower when he was interrupted…

The world was filled with light. Bright suns above illuminated the entire area, auroras of every colors dancing between them.

The Second of the Sixth hovered over an injured karnuq. She checked on the medicinal stings now flowing within his body and the mana they imbued into him. She rearranged the mana slightly so it would work better then began to dance.

At this point, the flowers in the bumblebee meadow were growing a bit larger each day. Princess Finnakynne was still there as well, sleeping on a bumblebee soldier. Belissar spoke ...
