Chapter 102: Bee-licious Prey?
A couple of days passed. Belissar continued to watch the karnuq as they swept through the way they came. His eyes widened as he saw the mushrooms and the moss…and later the battle against the wolf-moles. The Underway was far more alive than Belissar had expected.
The hunting group was now making their way back with their spoils. Belissar went to welcome them back along with Chief Rohsuak and the other karnuq…before remembering that the first floor dirt tunnels hadn’t been there when they left. He hastily swapped the Tower’s entrance back to the first floor Flower Meadow so they wouldn’t have to travel through the Dirt Tunnels maze.
Belissar wondered if there was an easier way to do that. Maybe there was some sort of room feature that would work? But well, despite now having enough DP again for another room feature choice, Belissar was still staying away from those for the time being.
The hunting group arrived on the second floor to cheers. Meanwhile, the digging bee flew off of Metsaitti’s shoulder, performing a salute dance in the air in front of Belissar. He smiled back at her.
“Welcome back, and great work.”
Her salute dance only sped up. Belissar held out his hand. She paused for a second before landing on it. He then formed a bit of honey on his hand for her.
“Here, you must be hungry.”
The worker bee stared up at him for a moment before gingerly starting to drink. In the meantime, Metsaitti walked up to Belissar, along with Tyghak and one of the other young hunters. They were carrying a wolf-mole corpse.
“Sacred Den Master, thank you for sending your bee with us. She was incredibly helpful.”
