Again I am flying. And again it is a flight like no other. For we invented new methods, and passing peacefully in communication, while bringing others to their location, it is not an activity we excel at. Though we are better at it than others of our kind. And it is a flight we can only have during this time of pseudo-war. As there are many active, many on their way, and not enough to remind them to eat. So we fly, from distant pods to other distant pods. To feed those between we carry them to where food is processed, and we return to other pods.
But I do not wish to dwell on the details of travel. We share our flight we many others, and their joy sustains us. Where mine is waining.
----------------------------------------
He Who Minimizes Flows is greeted in his pod by She Who Knows Where Things Are and... Another one.
She Now She Who Flies? He has recently awoken and... What is that about giving him a designation?! That question was targeted at the other one? And what is flight?!
She designates him Nim. Well, if it makes things easier...
But wait, he has recently awoken and the flow in the hive has gone to live with the beasts.
Why is that? is it because of all this flight... she passes him a memory packet, he returns the shard, that's what flight is? Of course, it would be messing with the carefully controlled flow, they need to stop this instant as he changes the greater hive model he needs to reestablish efficiency...
She nudged him again. It was more than the flight, it was a state of war. Or form what she understood, a state of actively remembering war.
The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
The entire hive?
Its majority. That was worrying, he would need to designate more exits. That would solve both problems. Where were the rest of They Who Construct The Walls? And they who went out, they were the ones to pay for it after all. She handed him some food and pointed him on his way.
----------------------------------------
I inquired of her? Was it really safe to have Nim trying to redesign the entire hive?
She waved it off, he doesn't have the power or the resources. He'll create efficiency where he can convince others to pay for it, then use that to create greater efficiency and expect to be paid for that when it works out. It often does. But first, he'll probably have personal hives moved for better movement and flow between them, and he'll get a cut of the worker portion for that.
Does she know more?
No, not really.
Huh, I pause. Then we fly again.
----------------------------------------
He Who Remembered War tried his best. And yet she still sleeps. Sometimes, one needs rest, and only time can tell if one's actions are of consequence.
What is She Who Transfers Memories Doing Here?
Watching, some of these are her work. Some are her partner, a role more are needed for, but there are some that do more specific variations of the task. He could be one. He Who Transfers Memories Of War.
But she is opposed to the current state of things. She was biased in her transmissions why would she enforce their position?
Because she too was acting in the interests of the hive, and she believes that if he were the one of them to take this role, it would be best for the hive.
But he knows what she thinks is best for the hive. But still, he would take the role, temporarily, if only to better see the memories so he could better find his true specialization.
And she would teach him. But he would teach others of his role if the specialization is important to them.
She agreed. And they continued in their tasks.
