Saturday Part 4

Lorekeeper Yu'Chri 3The two Ant Queens visited our temple today.After hearing that Madam Coco was out celebrating [a], they had the audacity to say that she's been neglecting her duties as the galaxy's protector. They then demanded to know why the Lorekeepers refused to keep track of their situation.In order to answer that question, we would need to go back 21 years.The Royal SecretDuring Madam Coco's first month, the Queens interrupted her scheduled "One Piece-playtime session" [b] so the Chosen One can help settle an ancient debate: whether the Red Giantess preferred sweets like the Black Ants or Spicy foods like the Red Ants.When Madam Coco told them not to bother her, the Queens threw a tantrum, claiming if their colonies don't get an answer, then they will feel the need to start a war. The little Chosen One cried, fearing that her tongue would be "bitten" [c].She flew deep into the Asteroid Belt, and after a couple of hours, came back, asking the two to be patient... their response will be given to them "eventually".If the Chosen One told the Ants to wait, they would need to wait. That is the law. We felt it rude to rush her decision-making, so we never brought it up.As for why the Temple didn't record that moment, it's because we wanted to protect the Queens' reputation.These books go out to quadrillions and the ant population grows by the second.After hearing our reasoning, the two apologized, stating that anger has clouded their judgement... they swallowed their pride and insisted on us writing what happened that day so their people could learn from their mistakes.Footnotesa. Lorekeeper Yu'Chri 2b. A game Madam Coco had us play based on her favorite epic created by the mysterious entity known as "Oda". I was given the honor of playing "Chopper".c. Madam Coco is weirdly protective over her tongue around the Ants. She tends to keep talking with them at a minimum.
