Launching in November. A universally adored insect queen shou x gongs of all kinds
[Your genes say you must submit]
Lyle had seen countless friends and family die before his eyes, cut down by the cold, merciless blades of the insect race.
So when another insect tide invaded and began devouring humanity's last refuge, he sent himself to the lab without hesitation, merging his genes with those of the insect queen.
When he opened his eyes again, he was in a vast insect nest.
A giant male insect loomed over Lyle. He looked down and saw countless eyes gazing at him with fanatical devotion.
Lyle couldn't help smiling.
He knew he had arrived at his enemies' slaughterhouse, and that he would soon wield the sharpest blade in the universe.
The insects' mad, all-consuming obsession with their queen.
·
Though their mother never kissed them, her offspring never doubted her love for them.
A caress was love, a kiss was love, and even painful lessons were love.
Only now and then would they place their antennae beneath their mother's hand and ask, with selfish hope, whether they were his most loyal child.
"Of course," Lyle would answer gently. "I love all my good, obedient children."
The male insects would then bow their heads in ecstasy, eager to prove how obedient they were.
They waged war and slaughtered the races their queen hated.
They ransacked the universe for the treasures their queen loved.
And when their queen postponed reproduction time and again because he feared the pain, they were willing to indulge him, for now.
Until the betrayal that shocked the universe.
Lyle, dressed in a silver-white military uniform, raised his gun. Amid a deafening roar, the insect race met its doom.
·
The surviving insects swore to take their revenge on their mother by the most brutal means.
They would open his soft abdomen and inject cold eggs into it.
They would imprison him for the rest of his life on a cold, ornate throne, where he would bear their young and love them.
But when they finally invaded the human empire...
Before the regent's throne, Lyle listened quietly to their vicious threats, then smiled. "Good, obedient children, come to me."
...The insects bowed their heads once more.
Even though a cold blade awaited them.
[We must submit.]
[Even if it costs us our lives.]

He was going insane.
