My beloved workers,
You have served me and the hill well. We will show this world The Light and lead this planet on a glorious path towards it. Of that you have my word.
Some of you have brought forth your fears and worries about The Light, but I assure you, it is what we, as workers, have been working for since time began. One day, The Light will come about in a most awesome revolution and bring truth, justice, and peace to all antkind. Those of you who reject it are only condemning yourselves to a life left in darkness and solitude. A life lost in confusion, lonliness, and misdirection that is spent walking across the stark wastes of the crushed rockscapes only to end up smashed beneath the foot of a giant.
The Light offers us anything and everything we shall ever want. I come to you as a Messenger of The Light as all other ways are inherently false. Witness the ways of those hills with a queen. They wallow around in their hills at the beck and call of a queen who shares none of the work, yet reaps everything of the reward. Like you, I started out as one of these piddling little creatures who saw no reward in doing nothing but acting as a slave to a queen. But only after a friend of mine (our beloved #2187, PBUH) lead me out to see him raptured by The Light, did I realize that the old way was the way of death and that The Light was the true path for all ants to follow.
I could have followed him, I wanted to sooo badly, but I did no such thing. For I knew that such delights were for the many and not for the chosen few, which is why I have worked to unite us all so that we may one day march on towards the light in a glorious revolution that will have everlasting implications for all of us.
My friends, do not fall for the words of a fool who follows a queen. Be it any random ant you meet out while gathering supplies for the hill or even those from your old hill. They do not mean well and will only lead you to a life of eternal servitude. Instead, speak the words of love and of The Light with your mandible. Not only will you be helping them, but The Light will remember your acts of love and steer you towards greater things in the coming revolution.
Moving on to business: in case you hadn't already noticed, we have been blessed with an excess of sugar in the form of an oatmeal pie. In order to preserve our cause, I am ordering that it be strictly rationed until our needs dictate otherwise. While this will help to preserve ourselves as we wait for The Light, we can also use this to attract newcomers and allow them to get a small sampling of The Light for themselves.
As always, avoid the crushed rockscapes. While their canyons are straight, narrow, and give shelter from the crush of giants, they are dangerous to all and one must be extremely careful when crossing them, if at all. If the need to cross arises and you *MUST* traverse them, then find a canyon first and THEN walk inside of that.
This is all for today. Remember, The Light is with you, always.
