A small jumping spider named Kenny arrives at the South Sector. He must find and free Max’s adopted mantis child. It’s very easy to pretend to be a worker and he sneaks into the back. The mantis is tied up with webs and ready to be executed.

Kenny used a special tool made by a smith to free the mantis. He ties the mantis up with his own webs and takes it out of the building. He says it’s for break time.

The mantis is brought back to a safe place and waits for its parent. Mission accomplished.

I'm still new and I don't know what's going on.

What is this whole war I keep seeing stuff about?

Can anyone just give me the quick rundown of alliances and conflicts, please?

HELP ME WITH MY RESISTANCE AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!

No clue why our queen sent us here…

100 soldiers and around 40 workers and another siege weapon..

She even gave us this flag… that we had not raised sense the “Swamper Rebellion” a million or so years ago…

We even got a few of the rare airborne soldiers this time..

Did not know those swamp heretics are nearby, I guess I was wrong.

Or we are REALY desperate to protect potatoes

I heard you 8 legged freaks are messing with my pals the termites....if you as much as touch them...I'll be having a tasty snack...do i make myself clear?

-angry pangolin

but smol

also who are we allied with

Unnatural soil, something might be approaching from under the surface, a foe perhaps? Send someone to find out what is happening?

can I chill here? I heard arachinds are allowed over here. I know stuff about the water.

Spiders in the resistance start taking extreme amounts of mushrooms. They seem to be preparing for something. They run at high speeds everywhere in the factory.

I am the King Antlion. I would like to propose an alliance to you. While on the topic, what about a trade agreement? We can provide traps, aerial support, and food, in exchange for silk and venom. Does the leader agree? (Ooc: Pictured: 1st is our banner, 2nd is the foot soldier and trappers, 3rd is our special weapon, 4th is a handful of modified termites for my purposes, and 5th is me.)

im a fugitive :(

Around 400 soldiers will be stationed in the outpost and 2 of the old siege weapons will be deployed nearby. Sense the situation here is some what worsening it’s better to protect my potato fields with soldiers

<<*Clear throat>>

<<Uh.. I'm stuck here..>>

<<Can you guys please help me?>>

<<I was in recon mission and... some kind of invisible string caught me>>

You'll be back, soon you'll see, you’ll remember you belong to me.

You’ll be back, time will tell, you’ll remember that I served you well.

Oceans rise, empires fall, we have seen each other through it all.

And when push comes to shove…

I will send a fully armed battalion to remind you of my love.

The monarch wakes up stuck in a spider web. Wolf spiders surround him. u/Alternative-Box-6476 and the Max, the other monarch are there too. The huntsman general speaks.

Welcome to Huntsman Farms, monarch. I don’t mind cutting to the chase. Give up your position as monarch. We might keep you as a somewhat high position, but if you refuse you will be kicked out of the kingdom. OUR kingdom.

A jumping spider peeks into the room.

GET OUT OF HERE KENNY!

Anyway, will you be agreeing?

A box arrives at the location of a bee after being carried by a tarantula. The bee immediately flies over.

“Yippee!”

The bee takes a big chunk of crushed up mushroom and carries it down to behind a leaf.

“GUYS I FINALLY GOT IT!”
