Brothers and Sisters,

Do any of you know what a 'formian' is or sounds like?

I would like to hear your opinions on what their desires might be, and your thoughts on whether they are a threat sent by the devils to harm us, or agents of the Gods to purify the corrupt.

Brother Thelonious

My Brothers and Sisters,

I have spoken with various experts on these Formians. Apparently they are giant ant-like creatures. They communicate mentally to each other, and we are unable to communicate with them. They likely desire some artifact someone has hoarded, and are willing to wage war to get it. They may also be working with the Chosen, who are known to follow the Devil-minion known as the Appetite.

In the coming days, please encourage the common citizens to seek shelter in the Temple, where they may enjoy our delicious soup and pray in peace. Remind them that through Ascension we may escape this Hell and be free from the threat of such creatures. When the ants come, the holy red light of Saint Bresley shall protect us from harm and give us the strength to repel them. Also, this would be a good time to stock up on protective potions and healing supplies.

If we perform well against the threat, the citizens will surely appreciate and recognize the service we provide.

The Sanctuary Library desires information regarding this creature and his legion of Formians. Many strange questions come to mind when looking into this situation, and as per usual, it is the job of the scholars to spread all information that is known about the situation to any that desire it.

Specifically, the Library desires texts elaborating on this creature, "Z". What is it? Why has it set its sight on Sanctuary? Why are a race of creatures that are normally content to stay within their hive and surrounding environs travelling so far? If this "Z" creature is a demon, why are formians allied with it?

There are many questions we do not understand, but we are hoping to have answered. Outstanding texts will certainly be appreciated, and possibly even rewarded.
