Prologue

Hi I'm Queen Naiad. Shortly after becoming Queen I discovered that my Drones are extremely......stupid. A lack of information let my warriors kill the last Queen's warriors with relative ease, but its quickly becoming a problem for me.

Night's....lunacy has me shocked. She seemed to think that by not telling her Drones anything she was keeping better control. Everyone is under trained. I'm surrounded by Idiots! Its a miracle that the Hive hasn't been taken over by another one, we'r probably at the weakest that this Hive has ever been at! I'm so angry!

It dost matter, really, I'll just fix the problem.

Anyway this is my personal record, I intend to keep a record of Hive activities in a different book. I also intend to wright about my personal feelings, everyone seems to think I'm a mindless robot, and while I will never let my Hive know what i'm thinking it might be helpful for the Queen after me to have something to show her Hive.

So this is the first entry in my journal. Oh and I intend to wright the record in third person, If I don't It might give whatever Drone decides to read about the last Queen's thoughts ideas, reading 'I' constantly would make him (or her) put himself in my place, and that isn't appropriate,

So I'll start the record. I'v gotten I Drone named Shadow to start a library and on my death the record of the Hive in my time will be put there. One day I hope for our Hive to be the best informed Hive that there is. I also intend to start training scientists. It would be great to start coming up with new spells

Oh and one more thing, Hives do have names but for some reason in Night's time no one used the name of our Hive, it just became known as the Hive by the river's edge. I blame this on more stupidity on Nights part.

Our Hive is and always has been know as the Bee-keep. Our first Queen was named Bee.

Our the Hive closest to us is the Quicksand Hive its a days fly north. I'm not overly concerned about them they tend to keep to themselves.

To the west lies the Anthill. They are a bit further away but a bigger concern I believe that they'er Queen intends to become the next Queen of The Hives. That could be a problem if they try to expand this way.
