Whilst walking around the woods and checking on the trees, I slipped on some mud and ended up falling down a large hole. I have heard about these holes before and them being part of some underground tunnel network made by large ants.
Seeing as I would have to find a way out I decided to take a closer look at things inside the hole. I found all manner of flora down there and several nests with the different stages of eggs growing inside them. I found the ants to be quite aggressive, which I found strange as often they ignore threats inside their nest believing that everything would be outside. It was later that I came across a pile of human remains, clearly half eaten and realised these ants had begun to find a new food source, us.
With that in mind I decided to kill as many of the ants that stood in my path and find the queen that was laying eggs. Once I had found her I set about killing it and any other nesting queens that were in the colony. Tired from my work I eventually found a way out of the nest and set about the long walk home.
When I got back and checked my pack I realised I had gathered quite a pile of gold and interesting looking seed.
Gold Count - 11038
Queens Killed - 3.
