     I have a strange calling to venture further onward into hallownest, it's as if the place holds a meaning I can not comprehend.

    So I trek on threw the wastelands once more. I pass the valley of sand, conquer the caves that deadly insect's call home.I fought my way threw with the help of a larger bug named Boon, we traveled threw the wasteland up until the howling cliffs where we solemnly parted ways, and I headed threw wastlands edge easily clearing my way threw it.
       Until a spider clad in a red cloak with a needle'n thread by her side stops me, she was quite the strange one holding a needle beside of hers, she looked down and spoke

"Turn back, simple bug this place is a corpse. It will only grant death. As will I, to those who'd seek to desacrate it."

     She looked down apon me, as if a spider looking at a fly trapped in it's web, so I in responce grabbed the hilt of my nail and she jumped towards me, luckily my hat blocked her hit, otherwise I wouldn't be writing at all right now. She looked suprised but I to this day do not know why as she began to speak again
"Something else calls you here, simple bug, Seek your wonders, But know you may find someone waiting."

     As the spider said this she lept away, Then I let a sigh of relief as I move forward a few steps a happy wave of relief crossing me. As I belive if she would not have backed off my attacks would have been futile.

"Such a strange place this is, full of bugs of all kind, that have similar yet menial goals. simply surviving to see the next day should suffice them. I am sure I will enjoy it here. " I said with a smile as I crept closer to the wasteland edge's outer wall.

    Then I began the treacherous climb down  howling cliffs outer wall for the final time, I could almost see the light of dirmouth below as I grew closer moment by moment until, I reached the bottom and stood triumphantly, for I had made it to Hallownest after all this time. After I help myself to some smaller bugs hiding under rocks and sticks, for a quick snack I then enter dirtmouth.

Sorry on the prologue being short the other chapters will be much heftier but i imagine that quirrels mind is still affected by being out the pale kings domain even if monomons mask does provide some protection
