Notes

After the Beekeeper is defeated, the computer at the back of the room will ask for a password:

“Password:”

If the password is incorrect, the computer will say the following:

“Incorrect… Reminder hint: It’s me.”

The correct password is “Dr Terrible.” Like other text-based inputs, capitalization and punctuation are disregarded, but the spelling must be completely correct. Afterwards, the computer will say:

“Password Correct… loading Research Logs…”

The computer will then display a random Research Log, out of X possible. The logs are official lore on The Nest and are as follows (note the dates are in day/month/year):

1
Research log 1: 12/1/2017 – The Mad God came by today, he wanted me to strengthen his latest creation, The Hive.
He pleaded that “those barbaric leeches” were able to destroy it within a minute. I was promised a doubled salary if I could successfully reinforce the Queen and her minions.
But does he know that he pays me nothing at all?

2
Research log 2: 23/1/2017 – Research is slow. Humans continue to come into my laboratory and destroy it…
I need to hide my work well. If the humans find it, I am in peril. Oryx would be furious!
He would certainly exile me from his Realm… I don’t think I’ll be able to survive being exiled again.

3
Research log 3: 6/2/2017 – Eureka! A breakthrough! Oryx will be pleased!
I have mixed the bees’ honey with an 18M Pure Evil solvent, and 7.45% Ambrosia… The Honey became extremely acidic and the results were immediate!
The Bee that I’ve captured from The Hive grew extremely agressive^[sic] and nearly escaped! …Tomorrow, I will try my creation on the Queen!

4
Research log 4: 8/2/2017 – My concoction works surprisingly well… Only moments after exposing the Queen to it, she began to metamorphose!
It seems to genetically alter the bees, their agressiveness increases by roughly 400% and they segregate by 3 types after hatching^[sic]
Any experiment that i’ve^[sic] sent in to try and measure the Queen’s strength did not even last a minute…

5
Research log 5: 12/2/2017 – Today, I attempted to show my progress to The Mad God.
But when I prepared the containment room, the Queen escaped!! She ravaged my laboratory and flew off to who-knows where.
I’m in great luck that some Knights prevented the Mad God from attending my grand exposure.
I’ve heard Oryx suffers from amnesia again, must be the wine… Perhaps he forgot about my project?

Research log 7: 18/2/2017 – At last, I have reached the Nest. It grew faster than I had anticipated.
I managed to infiltrate in one of its outskirts. Hopefully, I can set up a research facility here, undetected.
I sealed off the entrance to this place. Humans will not easily find it, although it is only a matter of time…

Research log 10: 19/3/2017 – These “Killer” Bees are more intelligent than I assumed!
Yesterday, I sent in a recon bot to explore the Hive. I found the Queen’s den undetected, but as soon as she noticed me, nearby leaders surrounded her in protection.
I lost connection quickly after that. It seems the Queen pierced trough^[sic] my heavily armored bot in a single sting!

11
Research log 11: 2/4/2017 – I have deviced multiple recon and assault bots to explore the strength of these killer bees.
Most did not make it far, but each one brought new revelations on the intelligence and power of my creation.
The smaller bees will give their life to protect the leader of their type. The leaders will strongly guard their homes, the Mini Hives within the Nest.
The Mini Hives are not defenseless, also. As soon as they detect an assailant, they will call upon nearby Leader Bees to protect them.
None of my bots were able to destroy any Hives. Their destructive power was too much…

12
Research log 12: 30/4/2017 – At last! one^[sic] of my recon bots has managed to succesfully^[sic] escape The Nest!
I cannot communicate with it anymore, But^[sic] it should attempt to reach out for an emergency call to Oryx^[sic]
Hopefully, he will be pleased by this place and its killing potential, and free me from it! If not, I’ll remain stuck here until… Humans find me. And I’m sure they won’t be pleased to see me here.

13
Research log 13: 23/5/2017 – I do not know how many days it has been, were it not for these logs.
To pass time, I’ve captured a few unsuspecting bees, to experiment with.
Maybe I will bee able to perfect them even more…

14
Research log 14: 12/6/2017 – After many experiments with the bees I captured, I can safely conclude that these creatures are the pinnacle of insect evolution.
Despite these insects’ perfection, I have still managed to make an enhancement in my favor.
After countless tries, i managed to wrangle the bees’ minds into doing what I say.
Soon, I will control this entire Nest, command the most powerful army the world has seen, and take the Realm as mine!

Afterwards, the computer will say: “Error! Intruders detected. Shutting down…”
