The darkside of Formics
I have managed to climb into an area I suspected to be a Formic hive while taking a break on a colony planet during a funeral. I can’t be sure because it is pitch black in there. However, one room, deep in the heart of the hive, had light. The light centered above an area of holes in the ground, covered in strange liquids and what appeared to be Formic legs. Inside these holes were small capsules about the size of a human hand; eggs, as I suspect. It seems the Formic Hive Queen only ever lays new workers in light, while the colony can only survive in the dark. She even seems to kill other workers to create these new ones or new queens… Hence those legs. It seems scientifically impossible but I had to get out thanks to the lack of air so I only have theories. A novel called “Xenocide” containing myths of the Formics is where you can find more data to my theories. I hope to return soon with more info
