Creature comforts?? On the 5th? The poor monster will be driven mad by their kindness.
Solant: I've dedicated my heart, my soul, my entire Existence to making sure the colony shall crush its enemies and see them driven before them. In this life or the next we will never, Ever lose again. Anthony: Why are you looking at me like that?
That match is her soul regret
Not the turtle! Fredrick was a national monument and part time theme park! Anthony is a monster.
There are a variety of things good about this, from its intense world building rife with political ideology to the deep focus on social and political posturing. I do however have to say that everything jn this story is written in passive voice. If you want everything to sound as if described by another person describing the story afterwards, then you'll be fine. Otherwise, it's excruciating. I've read 60~ chapters and that's how the author writes.
If ever there was an ant that would turn themselves into a psionic hive mind entity, it would be Solant. Purely so all the other ants would Stop Making Mistakes.
50 chapters in, and I can say this is A "tell, don't show" story where everything and everyone is described to be smart, or logical, or whatever but not ever really shown. And when the characters finally show their stuff, it's not very good. Sadly, while the author has some interesting ideas, they are buried under mediocre writing and poor logic.
Pretty much a crack fic. Leave logic at the door if you want to enjoy the story, and remember; the MC is a Good Guy. Except for all the times they aren't, but it's justifiable because morality is decided by the mc and everyone agrees. Also
Brilliant is so brilliant, and mad, that she has to remind herself of it on the regular to keep herself grounded.
I've never seen Anthony so disheartened to be burning things. That dragons breath at the end had the most sour smell of despair.
