The Hive Code

The Drone Code

A Drone trying to understand how a Queen thinks is the same as a mouse trying to understand a cat. The Drone is not as advanced as a Queen and is not meant to make decisions. We are not meant to understand we are meant to obey.

-A Drone serves and obeys their Queen with out question
-A Drone never thinks highly of them self
-A Drone dose not hold himself on the same level as the Queen
-Every Drone is equal
-Should the Queen fail in her duty it is the Drones job to raise a replacement
-A Drones life is meaningless the Hives survival is all that matters.

The Queens Code

As a Queen the responsibility for the survival of the Hive falls to me. Individuals don't matter, the Hive matters, as long as the Hive survives and I don't lead it to ruin I am doing my job. A Queen trying to understand a Drone is like a bird trying to understand a bee. We don't live to understand we live to protect.

-The Hive comes first
-Greed and power are misleading
-A Queen serves the Hive
-The Queen is responsible for the survival of the Hive

As long as the Hive exists we will work; every day is to prepare for the next a Hive exists for its existence


Author's Note
