sleepy bees. these bees produce a sweet syrup often used in sleeping medicine. they’re nocturnal and survive on the sweet nectar of people’s dreams. the sand in your eyes when you wake up is dried propolis secreted by these bees while they harvested your dreams. their sting can put any creature to sleep instantly!
