A baker who has never hesitated in a fight

Though he’s weak, he lacks the bravery of any knight

He’s proud to make the finest bread on any battlefield

Many injured heroes who eat his bread are soon healed

The two men nearest to the lazy bug were brave and bold

And Bob seemed even braver than Charles the baker was old

They, along with dozens of the their comrades circled round

Meaning to make quick work of the monster they had found

Achievement: I Forgot About That...

It’s possible I overlooked a very crucial fact

When they see a monster, this is how most folks react

It might be a good idea for you to go now

These jerks don’t appreciate you cuteness anyhow

“All those portals opening at once was quite a shock

I guess the gods’ warning were a lot more than just talk”

“It is lucky that most of them started heading west

There’s a little village there, but it’s still for the best”

Sting could understand them as they spoke about their day

How the whole town had gone to go chase monsters away

But for some reason they had all headed west of here

But right now those issues were the reason for Sting’s fear

Sting wanted to tell them he had not come there to fight

But the only thing his mouth could do right now was bite

They all tried to attack him with their swords and other things

And all that Sting could do was fly away on his quick wings

He looked behind as the bread cart grew smaller down below

And wished he’d taken a few more before he had to go

A mage had started throwing some attacks up at the bee

But he was quicker than any bug known to history

Sadly he flew higher, then toward a distant hill

Daydreaming about a place where he could eat his fill

But if the villagers he met refused to let him stay

How could he enjoy the taste of bread again some day

Achievement: Cheer Up

Don’t be sad my little friend, you’ll figure things out soon

Don’t let your dreams be dampened by one dark afternoon

Speaking of which, it sure has been dark for quite a while

Such weather would even make the God of Vampires smile

Everything was still so new and yet it changed so fast

The beautiful world he had found was not so overcast

He settled in a tree atop a lonely little hill

Hoping no more trouble would find him if he stayed still

He watched the portals opening, far away and nearby

And recalled his urge to fly through one, not caring why

He was glad he’d found this world but still couldn’t find rest

And knew of no place where he could safely set up a nest

For a while the big bee lamented his position

But soon there came another change to his situation

The portals started opening much faster than before

In every direction he saw a new open door

At first he didn’t panic, because he still had his speed

But soon he didn’t have the escape route which he would need

And those that came out of the portals were not weak at all

There were giant monsters wider than his tree was tall
