Common foe

The Broodwasp

The Broodwasp portrait

It is not caught here, it is farming: it walks the sheets picking weavers off them and never hurries. The bead of milk on its ovipositor gets under the skin and stays, and nothing you drink after that mends you whole again. It strips a thread from your guard each turn to line a nursery you will never find, and the varnish it leaves behind gums every edge you swing.
