Belissar smiled as the First of the Fifth and her two daughters came over to help with the golem construction, though it turned out they couldn’t do much with the actual construction. The bees’ instincts indicated that they should complete the Fourth of the Seventh’s golem solely using wax from breeze or nomadic bees. The slime queen, the ...
2025-01-08 20:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostThe next morning, First of the Fifth’s Fourth Daughter’s wings and antennae drooped. When the scouts reported it, she hadn’t believed it. It had to have been a mistake. When news came in over the Orchard’s communer network, she hadn’t listened. But then came the King’s council, when all the queens had the honor of gathering in his pr...
2025-01-07 20:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostAfter deciding on the rewards, Belissar was about to dismiss everyone when he heard Chief Rohsuak’s voice in his head.
“I apologize for the late report, Tower Keeper, but would you like to hear about my talks with the sigmaka today?”
Belissar’s eyes widened a bit. He had forgotten about those.
“Ah, yes. I...
2025-01-06 20:05:00 +0000 UTC View PostAll hostiles defeated. Emergency purification successful.
Reward: Two random reward choices.
Belissar exhaled his breath.
“Great work everyone, the purification is over. Can someone let Tarwantrad’s monster know?”
Once he had ensured everyone had been informed of the victory, Belissar took...
2025-01-03 20:05:00 +0000 UTC View PostSorry everyone, holidays got me again haha. We'll see how it goes for Friday. Thanks for your patience and happ-bee new year!
2025-01-01 21:52:20 +0000 UTC View PostIn the end, the slime queen, swimming queen, and a newly evolved toxic queen wanted to move to the bog. The slime queen and swimming queen both loved the terrain itself, while the toxic queen grew interested once they began testing the vaporous hemlock. Belissar moved the swimming and slime beehouses to the bog and built a new one for the toxic ...
2025-01-01 20:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostBelissar stood just past the doorway to what used to be a flower meadow. Mud and pools of water dotted the room. Dead grass and flowers floated on top of the water along with lotus flowers, blending in with what plants remained in the soil and obscuring the depth of the puddles. A particularly large pool stood in the center of the room, also cov...
2024-12-31 20:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostThe next day, Belissar began to set up the Death room Hesfalle had described. He made a new Flower Meadow on the karnuq floor connecting to door near the stairs to the other floors. He place a mana flower node and a basic poisonous herb node, then enabled rabbits in the room.
And after that…he was done.
For now, at least. He didn...
2024-12-30 20:05:00 +0000 UTC View PostSorry everyone, almost made it but the holidays got me in the end haha. Should resume posting next week (12/30) but we'll play it by ear.
2024-12-26 20:20:02 +0000 UTC View PostNow that the choice of bee monsters was settled, Belissar quickly moved on to the next one before he could regret his decisions.
Please select a perk:
- Concentrated Nectar (Rarity: Uncommon)
- Rapid Bloom (Rarity: Uncommon)
- Enhanced Seed Dispersal (Rarity: Uncommon)

2024-12-26 20:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostBelissar, Tarwantrad, and Chief Rohsuak were all sitting around as the celebration wore on. Belissar nervously picked at his food, eating just enough that the bees wouldn’t stop to check on him. He was trying to enjoy the taste of the honey, but he could not help his worry. The God of Bees said it was handled and he trusted her but he still re...
2024-12-25 20:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostThe God of Fire let out yet another sigh. His flame body had gone dim and cool, like a smoldering ember, while a cloud of heavy smoke hung around him. He tried to stoke himself with other thoughts. The Blazing Berserker herself had taken on an apprentice in the art of fire…though there was the slight complication of said apprentice being a dun...
2024-12-24 20:05:00 +0000 UTC View PostBelissar paced around the room, humming and groaning to himself. He had checked, double checked, and then triple checked the burning honey mead jar, but he couldn’t find anything out of the ordinary compared to the others. By all accounts it should have worked.
What really drove him mad was that it hadn’t failed in any of the normal wa...
2024-12-23 20:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostOnce the celebrations concluded, Belissar gathered his council. He told them of Hesfalle’s recommendations and the incoming rabbits. Chief Rohsuak and Metsaitti appeared quite excited about the rabbits.
“We also have enough DP for another shop purchase. Is there anything the Tower urgently needs?”
The karnuq shook their heads w...
2024-12-20 20:05:00 +0000 UTC View PostHesfalle took her leave shortly after, letting Belissar know she was willing to answer any questions and help out once he got started with the Death room. Tarwantrad stuck around for some further discussions. First, she asked about the choice he had made, so he told her about dancers, berserkers, and assassins, much to her glee. Belissar then ex...
2024-12-19 20:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostOnce Belissar had a chance to gather himself, he returned to Tarwantrad and Hesfalle. He crossed his arms and frowned.
“So…you said the bees can’t evolve with Death mana?”
Hesfalle shook her head.
“Not with this Death mana and the method described. Trying to raise a newborn in a pool of concentrated Deat...
2024-12-18 20:05:07 +0000 UTC View PostBelissar rubbed his chin and furrowed his brow, humming to himself. Niobee had told him that any bee, including the queens, would absolutely love a name from him, considering it a great honor. A sign of his favor, that the bee in question was special to him.
And that gave him pause. When he had named Beero, Velebee, and Frelis, it had most...
2024-12-17 20:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostThe Fourth of the Seventh danced about happily. She was big now! Big enough to carry both her first communer and the First of the Fifth’s First Daughter on her back, like the Conduit carried her queen mother Velebee! It was amazing, incredible!
She wanted to carry them outside and show them the mini-hive, but she knew they both needed to...
2024-12-16 20:05:00 +0000 UTC View Post“Hi, can hear?”
The Firstborn swayed midair and loss control of her mana. Instead, she focused on the wave of mana that had just hit her, very much like that of a communer’s. So, she attempted to respond as she would to her own hive.
“Fourth of the Seventh?”
A moment later, another surge of mana hit ...
2024-12-13 20:05:00 +0000 UTC View PostAs Belissar, the karnuq, and the bees all tucked in for the night, the flowers all across the Tower swayed in the calm nighttime breeze. The alfalfa Belissar had planted glowed with a faint green light as they condensed and processed all the sunlight and mana they had absorbed that day, passing it down into their roots. Mana and nutrients seeped...
2024-12-12 20:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostBelissar put his internal conflict aside. First and foremost, he had to see what everyone else thought of the options first. As usual, he turned the question to the bees.
The First of the Fifth conferred with the Apiary bees, but they had few dances this time.
“Dancers might help with hive? Bees sound good for army, should ask Firs...

The biggest changes this time focused mainly on Colleone, who...
2024-12-10 20:58:17 +0000 UTC View PostBelissar froze and stood still as a flood of challenger blessed messages filled his vision. A quick glance with his tower sight showed him the Tyhgak’s squad all cheering and playing around with mana wrapping around spears and arrows, while that one karnuq smith was kneeling before the Shrine of Bees with tears in his eyes.
“Huh.” 2024-12-10 20:05:00 +0000 UTC View Post
Hirkolos walked over to the karnuq apiary. One of the karnuq, Paisijik, smiled and waved him over once she saw him. He returned her smile and joined her as she checked on her hive.
The bees had buzzed at him at first but a flash of mana from Paisijik had apparently calmed them down. He could thus now stand and watch as she checked the broo...
2024-12-09 20:05:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe First of the Fourth zipped about in happy dances, giving in to her ecstasy. Her soldiers and even her workers paused their training and labor to join her as they all danced around a capped cell.
Named. Frelis, one of her workers, was named by the King! The King considered one of her workers’ achievements on par with the like...
2024-12-06 20:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostThe light faded and condensed into the form of a bee made of purple light that danced before the gardener’s eyes.
The Queen of All Flowers invites you to the Hive of All Flowers. If you wish to accept, please select one of the following blessings:

- Blessing of the Druid 2024-12-05 20:05:00 +0000 UTC View Post
The First of the Fourth’s gardener landed by her moving flower as she usually did. The flower had grown well in the water and mana rich environment, which the gardener had supplemented with mana of her own. It was now bigger than her, or even a soldier bee, and too large for her to carry on her own. Fortunately, it was perfectly happy in its p...
2024-12-04 20:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostThe next day, Belissar started his newest routine of checking on the Heart of the Forest, watering it from the nearby pond and creating some mana honey to feed it. It hadn’t sprouted just yet, but the gardeners hovered overhead assured him it was growing well.
After that, he set to the task of reviewing his rooms and floors. He now had a...
2024-12-03 20:05:00 +0000 UTC View PostWith the victory celebrated and the choices made, the time came for everyone to depart for the night. Belissar turned to Tarwantrad after dismissing the queens back to their hives.
“So…I should inform you about purifications, huh? Both when we start and when we finish?”
Tarwantrad nodded with a serious expression.

2024-12-02 20:05:00 +0000 UTC View PostTarwantrad bounced in place, staring at him with sparkling eyes as Belissar announced he had taken the monster choice. Belissar smiled and wasted no time checking the options.
