POBee 96.1 - New Discover-Bees
After making her delivery to the Firstborn, the First of the Fifth then gathered up another batch of honey and made her way to the third floor Flower Meadow where the new queen lived. She found a handful of the large and fuzzy bees now gathering nectar from the nearby flowers. While smaller than their queen, the workers were still quite large and round compared to her own, moving more ponderously about. The First of the Fifth wondered how in the King’s name the new hives would produce any quantity of honey given the speeds they were working and the number of workers active. The math didn’t seem to add up to her.
But, well, that was why she was here.
The new queen was also foraging, along with a second one that had like emerged from the spawner just today. The First of the Fifth approached them.
“I’m the First of the Fifth. Welcome to King’s hive of hives.”
The two queens looked at her for moment before the first began flying in a circle around her once again. The second slowly took off and began to follow her peer. The First of the Fifth resisted the urge to buzz.
Well, the King’s mana informed her that this was a display of happiness, which she supposed would do. These bees seemed a bit…slower, in many ways. She may have to teach them how to dance, it seemed.
“Here, brought honey. Hive of hives helps each other. Please use to grow hives quickly.”
The new queens stopped and watched as the First of the Fifth’s workers dropped off cells full of golden honey just in front of that hole in the ground the first queen called home. The first queen suddenly began zipping around in the air, flying circles around the First of the Fifth as fast as she could.
“…you’re welcome.”
