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.

His shiny diamond carapace induced resonance in the local mineral deposits.

this book already contains several self-sustaining sidestories and POVs, I see no real reason to add specific sidestories at the end. Unless it is fan-service. Or just some crazy alternative retelling.

He's aware of his own stupidity

Hope not, the man's a menace to society, even bullying the elderly and actively practicing deforestation on a galactic level

How would one determine an apropriate amount of "U"'s in this case. Just by feel? Maybe there's a book for this...

*Eye of the Tiger subtly plays in the background*

he's protecting the one thing he lost the moment he stepped into contact with the Colony, how valiant our Anthony is, even in his futile actions.

True, lesser gravity is conducive to higher levels of yeet. However, the moon still has a significant gravity field, one powerfull enough that without propulsion it would be impossible to send materials into it's own orbit, much less it's parent's orbit. From what I've understood, Kumia's moon is comparable in size to it's real-life counterpart, but a bit closer to the planet it orbits than our Moon is to Earth. The more significant results of this should be turbulent tides and clear signs of coastal erosion, but this is not explicitly shown in the novel, so we'll propose for now that Kumia's moon is smaller (and hence has lower mass). Even then, the effects of gravity are significant enough that launching anything into space would still require a great force, which we're sure that Lith cannot provide without investing HEAVILY into the object's materials (even if just so it does not suddenly blow up from stress). And all this while ignoring the mountains of calculations he'd need to perform to properly set the surveilance units into orbit. TL;DR: No.

with whoose resources? He's dirt poor compared to most Awoken that are comparable to him in power or influence, not to mention the White core mages and guardians. Not to mention the logistical problems that come with running such networks, even getting the satelites into orbit is beyond annoying.

1. Is Kamila suddenly not as important as she's portrayed to be? 2. The White core is basicaly unattainable to Lith, due to his cracked life-force.

I'm sure he would, if he didn't need the tower to empower him.

It would be the ideal outcome if Thrud has no other way to get them back to the Golden Griffon, but Eldritches mostly rely on Chaos magic and other Cursed elements, which are just slightly less volatile than nitroglicerin. Seeing as Tezka's main goal is to keep the kids safe, offing the aggressors is the best course of action here.
