Congratulations!

Why go up, when you can go down.

Nah, the entire book's all planed out and nearly finished, so there's little to no chance of it being dropped. There might be some disputes with Amazon, like for the first volume, so don't be suprised if some early chapters go missing, but the book will continue to be updated for a while still. If you want the entire chapter collection, it's still available on patreon (maybe, haven't checked in a while), with a sweet bonus of getting to read the chapters early.

Maybe. Up until this point, none of those who have access to it have died, so there is no precedent to refer to. I'd imagine it might let Anthony store something like an echo of their soul, allowing him to empower himself or others with the skills of those who recently passed away.

That's why he has multiple brains. So he can be extra shooth-brained. All the time.

Chill, we'll be going back to mackarel market soon enough

Should be. Ants aren't very fond of water when it's not in their stomachs, so there shouldn't be any competition for land and resources between the two species. From what I understood, the brachian mostly populate deeper coastal waters, territory that the Colony would have trouble accesing for obvious reasons (unless, 10.000 water mages?). In addition, Seeing as there is abundant resources, taken from the fact that there are 'sweetfish' available to snack on and seen as an uhealthy choice, the brachian are likely to be cautios of their new neighbours, but not feel threatened by their presence. Yet.

I see someone's been playing Doom in their downtime.

I believe they can apply to harvest experience at the farms. They can still fight, just not as well as the soldier caste. Or rather, the typical carver caste ant isn't as well equiped for combat as say a scout would be. They still learn spells that they can use against others in a fight.
