Though Gammaton was a bit surprised to be picked up and carried by Levia, she couldn't say that it was unpleasant. As a general, Gammaton exuded strength and dependability, so people rarely treated her like a princess even in her butterfly form, let alone her egg form. Besides, given that their master was injured, the urgency was warranted. However, upon arrival, it seemed Tungsten was already in the process of healing Lady Faetalis, though Gammaton did head over and offer some healing as well. However, Gammaton wasn't the greatest healer outside of combat, since her abilities primarily revolved around sharing her vampirism. She would be more effective if she challenged someone like Canology Mae to a duel, used her kinsect to steal Mae's highest stat, health, and transfer it to Fatalis, and then proceed to drain Mae's health, allowing the shared vampirism with Faetalis to top her off. Of course, such a setup was a bit more complicated than the urgent situation would have allowed, and Mae might balk at being challenged to a duel during such a stressful moment. Regardless, Faetalis was soon back on her feet, so Gammaton backed off to stand at attention. [color=a187be]"I would say that Hivehill is very much in the same condition as the other factories,"[/color] Gammaton reported, [color=a187be]"The brood queens have gone into hibernation to conserve resources so our military force has been significantly impacted."[/color] The brood queens were not actually units, and according to the old system, were actually considered 'furniture'; barely mobile parts of Hivehill that were part of the production cycle, that is, consuming resources to make eggs that would later hatch into the various insectoid forces of Infactorium. They were not very strong, and any attacks they could perform to defend themselves were considered 'traps'. With little to no energy coming into Hivehill, the higher tiers of brood queens cocooned up, leaving only the weakest to produce a rudimentary force. [color=a187be]"The workers, on the other hand, are mostly unscathed and are ready for leased deployment should any of the other overseers require a few additional helping mandibles. The biologically-inspired architecture of Hivehill makes it slightly more resilient to tremors, and since most of the workers were resting during the celebration, they were within the safety of the tunnels during the...forced transport."[/color] Gammaton looked around at her other overseers, and though her host's mask hid her expression, offered a melancholy smile, glad that they, at least, were safe and present, though the shadow of the absence of the other great beings loomed.
