057// monty got a raw deal [still winning that race remix]

Another dead ant has landed in front of the Hatchery, so if you have business in that area, please be careful. Kiba, Locket, Target--what’s the status of the Wilderness? Still the same?

[Pauuuuuuse]

Also, if I could get a medic out here, please. I’m afraid the ant landed on a newborn as he was on his way out.

I can be there in a few minutes. How badly injured is he?

[felinemystique]

I'm afraid he didn't make it.

[snowburned]

I see. Let's hope he didn't feel anything, then.

Had he named himself? For the records.

[felinemystique]

Yes. His name was Monty; he was actually a return.

[moe_rapier]

Locket here. The Wilderness hasn't changed, and we haven't spotted any of the strange tears today. Two areas will be secured by the end of the hour and ready for cocoons and the Clinic patients.

We're on alert for any instance of the Wilderness doubling again.

[felinemystique]

Thank you. The ants seem to be much less of a threat this time around, but if the Wilderness remains stable, I may have the cocoons moved down there just in case.

[feathered_earth]

Oh no! That's awful!

I'll keep an eye out for more ants....

[felinemystique]

Thanks, kiddo. This isn't turning out like previous invasions at all, so we'll need to stay sharp.

[Having read all the previous comments.]

What a crushing blow to be dealt to one so young.

[stonyfaced]

Oh gods, again? Poor bastard.

[felinemystique]

He must have the worst luck I've ever seen.
