Karax POV (The Champion of Sanguiscreech Ants)
Karax knelt in silence.
The stone beneath him was cool, carved smooth over centuries.
He faced a vast chamber sealed behind golden curtains. Warm light leaked from the other side, pulsing faintly. That was where she resided, their mother, their sovereign.
The Queen of the Sanguiscreech Ants.
Her voice emerged from beyond the veil.
"He is going to break out of the Infinite Prison soon."
Karax's jaw tensed. His body didn't move, but his mind raced.
He didn't understand what was happening anymore.
The Jungle of Red Silence had always been dangerous, but it was home. Predictable, in its own cruel way, and yet, recently, something had shifted.
First, an unknown humanoid had entered the jungle.
He'd slaughtered their Level 5 elites without warning, and nearly wiped out the Level 4 ants too, saying he was training.
