SUSPICION IN THE HIVE
“I do not trust Xenic my queen,” Adviser Xer said.
Hive Queen Xurandra turned away from her eggs and looked at Xer with irritation. “What has she done now?”
“It is nothing new my queen, but I feel our mutual goals are no longer aligned. Her creation of X still worries me that she plans to usurp your throne.”
Hive Queen Xurandra nodded. “Yes, I agree that X has proved puzzling, but since his creation I have made it clear to her that there is to be no more Xizeks birthed without my approval.”
“I cannot trust a Xizek that walks sludgeless ground and is not connected to the hive mind. It makes her a liability. Her recent alliance with the Matrimoore seems misplaced. We have no need to expand influence beyond our territories since the failure of the Great Interloper War. Our focus should be to regain our strength.”
“The war was not a failure. The Crystalynns are in retreat, and the Astracites have proven to be a powerful ally. To align with these Matrimoore humans seems beneath us, but Xenic has proven resourceful when it comes to diplomacy.”
“You are much wiser than myself my queen, but keep your guard around her.”
