Fern's Literatures

A peek into Fern's hatching day, and the state of mind her nurse, Head Nurse Birch, was in.

Fern learns about the Queen of Dying (a mythological wasp-beast) and how the wasps view a dark moment in ant history.

Fern discovers the dangers an ant can face outside the safety of the colony.

A short tale of how Fern came to be born and how Head Nurse Birch reacted. (From an early draft, the prologue will likely have some differences in the final book!)

Two short drabbles featuring the sorta-characters of Deathborn: the fungi! Fern can hear them talking but they don't say anything interesting until later on...

Very mild spoilers for Deathborn ahead.
