When in the presence of evolved brethren, most monsters will choose between two paths. Some, will get much smarter, to help their evolved brethren lead, as a single monster can’t control an army on their own, while others will lose most of their mental capabilities. While the first path tends to make it much harder to deal with a group of monsters, as you can imagine it is much harder to fight an organized army than a mob, the second oath should not be discounted either. The monsters that lose their mental capabilities do tend to gain a decent bit of strength for it, and those mobs can do much more damage, as they tend to be much harder to predict.
-The Bloody Axe, Day 5 of Adventurer Training
I looked around, hoping to god I did not just fall into what I thought I did. Looking around, there was nothing else here but a few spiders sucking up the pool I was laying in. Oh god. OH GOD! I WAS IN A POOL OF BOAR! NO GROSS! GET IT OFF! GET IT OFF! GET IT OFF!

I flew up, away from the threads and into the trees, trying to shake off the melted guts I was drenched in.
After five minutes and much less success than I was comfortable with, I came back to where my spiders had been lapping up the pool of dead boar. They were clearly done by now, as the lack of both a pool and spiders would suggest, so I was just left sitting in front of a massive wall of webs. I could feel my spider cultists in there, and they felt a lot less hungry than before. Clearly that had not been the only meal they found in my absence. I flew there, staring at the wall, wondering how exactly I could get into this safe? haven of my spider cultists. I flew there for a solid five minutes before making the decision that I most certainly could not. Those stupid spiders built themselves a home that looked pretty mosquito proof, and I could not help but wonder why they couldn’t just do this before.

I swear these dumb animals. They never would have been worried about food to begin with if they had this. It’s like these spiders can’t even think for themselves. They clearly knew what they didn’t want to do. No, let’s not go up. But they can’t think, oh, let’s build a massive web to lure in probably thousands of insects to their doom. I swear, all I told them to do was go hunt. BUT NO! Instead of coming to hunt with me, they build a web fortress. WHICH THEY SHOULD HAVE DONE TO BEGIN WITH!
I guess on the bright side, I probably wouldn’t have managed to convert them all if they had this beforehand… But still! Ugh!
Alright, might as well ask just in case. SPIDERS! PLEASE TELL ME YOU LEFT ME AN ENTRANCE INTO YOUR HUMBLE ABODE! At that question, I got absolutely nothing but confusion from them. Apparently, they thought I could just climb on the web to get in. Clearly they forgot something. I’M NOT A FUCKING SPIDER!
Alright! Wooo. I should calm down. I’m getting worked up at nothing. Be like a tree. Nothing can harm me but fire and a huge storm. Stupid spiders are a good thing, they keep my leaves clean of bugs that want to eat me.
What? No! I’m not actually a tree!?!?! WHY WOULD YOU THINK THAT!?!?! AND HOW DID YOU EVEN HEAR THAT YOU STUPID SPIDERS!?!?! Oh wait, I think I’m still… messaging? them. Ahem. What was I doing? Doesn’t matter. Siders! Make me a way in please! NO I CAN’T JUST CLIMB ON THE WEBS! I GET STUCK TO THEM! MAKE ME A HOLE OR SOMETHING!... What do you mean you can’t? Oh, I see… The spiders sent me a picture of what would happen if they put a hole in the web. Let’s just say it was not structurally stable, and apparently spiders can suffocate. Hmm… I’m totally gonna have to live outside the web, aren’t I? Doesn’t matter, I think it’s time to go to bed anyways. I’m getting tired again. But before that. I think I made a promise to someone.
Oh almighty Mosquito God, thank you for letting me not die today, as that would have sucked. Goodnight.
