Summary
Following the disappearance of the Infection from Hallownest, a routine patrol brings Hornet to Hallownest's Crown — where she is assailed by a trio of unknown bugs with sinister intentions. Kidnapped and brought far above the tunnels of Hallownest, she soon finds herself stranded in a world of perpetual light and open sky, far from the dark and subterranean home she has always known.
Meanwhile, the kingdoms of Bugaria grow restless, with reports of a powerful cult becoming active on their borders. As Kabbu, Leif, and Vi set out to investigate, they find themselves wrapped in a conflict that may threaten the hard-fought peace of all the four kingdoms. And who is this strange masked bug, who wields silk and needle deadlier than any sword?

Summary
Ok, let me just start this journal by introducing myself.
Greetings, my name is Melvin Becker, the last living Giant/Human in the world, only a lot smaller than I normally would be.
I don’t know exactly how I got here and it's not important for this introduction. Just want to point out that I work as a Receptionist for the Explorers Association near the Ant Kingdom.
Why? Because the Association needs the extra hands that’s why, and it's not like I have anything better to do besides the horde of Bugs that simply want to gawk at me and that one Moth Professor who can’t stop annoying me with questions about the history of my people. Oh, and I also sometimes help these anthropomorphic bugs in identifying with whatever GARBAGE they found.
I am basically just a walking talking Lexicon about everything giant/human-related. Well, it could have been worse. I could have regained consciousness right after the world went to shit apparently and be all alone.
Well anyway, this is all you need to know now. I’ll write more when my shift is over. So stop BUGGING ME!

Summary
Astotheles figured that if he extended an olive branch to the Ant Kingdom and helped them out with their mission, they might pay the favor back and help his people.
Mothiva needed to spring back after her blowup with Zasp, and if she could nab one of the artifacts, it'd secure her position in the Explorer's Association and the fame that comes with it.
Hoaxe found himself fighting for survival, exiled from the only home he had ever been accepted in after a plan to improve his life and get the respect of his peers went awry.
And the Ant Kingdom shuddered as it realized that its best hope of finding the Everlasting Sapling lay in the hands of a bandit, a diva, and a sneaky little mimic.

Bugs That Lurk Underground, Your Strength Marks You Amongst Us by MaggicSorceress

Summary
Both fables and legends alike speak of bug tribes that lurked deep below the surface, although any information about these bugs has since been lost to time.
Team Snakemouth knows much of fables and legends, and they know better than to completely disregard them.
However, they weren't expecting there to be more to the Forsaken Lands than the Termite Kingdom...
And the appearance of a stranger might cause them to rewrite all they knew of their world.-
