The atmosphere inside the hive is a palpable weight—a dense, warm hum of countless wings vibrating through honeycombed passages, the air syrupy with the smell of fermented sweetness and something darker, like damp chitin. In the faint amber glow seeping through the membrane-like walls, you see it: a larval form, transparent and throbbing with a faint internal light, detaching itself from the organic architecture. It rears back, a contraction rippling down its gelatinous length, and a spray of sticky, net-like filaments erupts from its gaping mouth, sailing directly toward you.
