[“Alright- I heard a voice calling for me. Said it was in a place with water and white walls, but I’ve been through a lot of those before… hopefully I’m in the right one.” Asteria wraps the strap of her bag around herself again, making sure it doesn’t get wet.
“If it’s hostile, however, I do have some weapons like my trusty sword right here. Don’t think my lighter will be useful though.”
Her fur is spiked up, alert. She doesn’t seem very happy to be here.
“Water… I hate it so much.” Asteria groans, already tired of this. “Well, at least I can meet another person. Maybe.”
[“Is it on?” The camera shakes a little, revealing the face of a… bee? It looks quite odd.
“I haven’t seen this type of technology since… that.” The bee has a crown on her head, and… hair. What.
“I don’t remember what it was called. Though I don’t remember most things… That’s why I started The Archives, and these logs now.” It(?) has heterochromia, with one eye being a lime green and the other being a rich electric blue.
“If anyone sees this in the future- hi, I’m Asteria! Full name Asteria Conste, but I prefer being called by my first name. Im the Queen of the Beehive, and several other things but that’s not important. Right now, I’m in a… situation I never thought I’d be in.” Asteria turns the camera around, revealing bright swirling colors, with seemingly no ground or sky. Just… colors.
“I must admit- it’s quite an eye sore. Haven’t figured out how to escape this one yet. Unlike all the others, this one isn’t very simple. And all that lime green, yuck…” Asteria’s face is back in view, looking quite disgusted.
“That’s… it for now. Maybe I’ll make more logs later. See you on the other side.”]
[End of Log 1.]

[Log 54: October 16(?)]
[It look like the inside of a house, specifically a kitchen. Asteria puts the camera down on the counter, facing her. She looks… unkempt. She eyes look a little duller than before, and her hair droops down by an inch. She rummages through the cupboards, searching for anything she can eat. Eventually, she finds some honey. A rare find. She takers the jar and the camera, and sits down at the table.
“I know I’ve said this before, but it feels odd seeing the inside of a human’s house. I’m either the size of a human right now, or these… places just shrunk down to my height.” She slowly eats the honey, face blank of emotion.
“You know, this reminds me of something. Somebug I knew went to jail for… reasons I wont say. They got released and I treated them to some honey.” Asteria chuckles, eyes lighting up.
“I even have a picture of it, but I’m pretty sure I lost it. I miss those times, no battles, no wars, no nothing.” Her eyes darken, and her smile softens.
“Just me and my friends. In the Hive…”
The now empty jar is placed on the table, making a loud crack sound. The force was hard enough to shake the table, tipping over a cup or two. Asteria grins, nothing like how she looked a minute ago.
“Oh well! Enough reminiscing on the past, I have dimensions to explore!” She picks up the camera, “See you on the other side!”]
[End of Log 54.]
———————————————————————-

Also if ur wondering why its october 16 for asteria, youll learn later on. Probably. Anything you dont know, youll learn. ;3
[The camera shows the clear sky, as the surroundings fade away.
“I will never get over how reality breaking this is.” Asteria chuckles, moving the camera to reveal that she is now standing on thin air, as clouds move into view in the background.
“My stuff is gone again… but, at least the camera is still here. I’ll get them back once I leave this level. Shouldn’t be too hard to find one of those elevators…”
Asteria starts to walk in one direction, face blank. “I’m a little bored, to be honest. I wish there was something to do other than scavenge. Maybe I’ll find some books, who knows.” Asteria smiles, “I guess this is getting repetitive, huh? Oh well.”
[“I think I’ve been here before…” Asteria mutters, swiveling the camera to show a green courtyard with white pillars.
“Yeah, I have. Theres nothing here, but maybe I’ll find some Almond water. Some of the bottles back at base are expiring.” She starts to walk to the buildings, which are white as well. Maybe they have exits there…?
As she gets inside, the interior resembles that of a school campus, with long hallways and doors that lead to classrooms and offices.
“I know theres some way to escape this one, I just have to find someplace without a roof!” Asteria snatches a bottle os Almond water she found lying around, inspecting it.
“Mm, this one’s old. Wont be much use.” Asteria sighs, “Ending this Log for now, I’ll inform you guys in the next one if anything happens. Other than that,”
[The camera zooms in on a tent in the distance, surrounded by a field of flowers.
“Back here. Decided to stop exploring for now, I’ll go back to scavenging tomorrow.”
Asteria crawls inside her makeshift home, and places her bag and camera down. You can see some small piles of essential items like food and water, and other miscellaneous things.
She starts taking out the objects she collected and organizing them, “I’ll never get tired of coming back here, honestly. This is by far one of the safest places I’ve been to. There is water though.”
Asteria takes a bottle of Almond Water, and chugs it.
“Damn I’m tired- I need to rest. Maybe I can make some flower crowns.”
“If anything interesting happens, I’ll record it. Other than that,” Asteria smiles,
[The camera shows a rainy sky behind a window, and moves to reveal an empty room in an office building.
“… I never liked the rain. Didn’t really bring any… good memories.” Asteria admits, turning the camera towards the pouch she found.
“This looks similar to Fera’s, actually. Theres even a glowing mushroom inside. Maybe…” She opens the pouch, showing some food, medicine, and the glowing mushroom she mentioned.
“Hm. I haven’t seen any entities in here. It’s quite peaceful. The other rooms without windows were pretty empty too, aside from some walls, chairs, these big machines, and some stairs.”
Asteria is quiet for a moment, puts the pouch in her bag.
“I need to make another bag… this one’s running out of space. How many materials do I left again? I forgot. I should check the logs.”
“I guess that’s all. I’m going to stay here for a day, see what I can scavenge from the weird machinery.” She gets up, “See you on the other side.”]
[Asteria’s running again, and you can faintly hear the crackling of fire behind her.
“Good news, I threw a moltov at that thing, pretty sure it’s dead now-“ She spots a vent high up on a wall, and runs over to it.
“Bad news, this place may or may not be flammable. At least i have this pouch!” Asteria flys up to it, and puts her bag inside. “This one is pretty short,” The bee laughs, “But at least I can document my finding here.”
[The camera is pointed at the ground, and it looks like Asteria is running. She turns a corner, and hides from… something. After 30 minutes, you hear Asteria shakily exhale. She turns the camera towards herself, and she looks disheveled.
“… there’s something other than me here. It’s nothing I know of.” Asteria says, barely above a whisper.
“Should’ve guessed that already,” The bee chuckles, “It was dumb of me not to. All that training, for nothing…” She gets up, sword in her other hand.
“There should be an exit around here… if that thing comes back, I can probably beat it. I do have a lighter…”
“I’ll make another log in a bit. Just gotta make sure it’s safe again.”]
