[TheHopscotch]

"... For she has demanded our obedience, our sacrifice and service. 
For she we will struggle, for she who speaks for the hive."

Within the outskirts of Delphina does something monstrous begin to take shape.
The sprouting of a massive tree both beautiful and morbid to look upon all at once. 
Where the hive hide away and rebuild their forces, ferocious and ravenous beasts spawned forth from the shadowlands themselves.
Both life and decay exist in unison within these forests.
Mana itself drained and returned to the soil, following this endless loop of life and rebirth.
And, at the center of both creation and the existence of The Greathive?



She demands praise.
