The ant colony was in absolute disarray as they hurried around their cavern and tried their best to bring up their defenses and protect their Queen! They had received a message from one of the scouts about an attacker that had taken out both the northern and western entrances, and they knew for a fact that any intruder capable of doing something like that was too strong for them to take on in a straight fight!
So, the Queen had ordered all of them to begin mounting defenses inside the tunnels. First, they began to block the tunnel entrances with as many rocks and hardened mud balls as possible to keep the intruders out, then they started breaking the tunnel ground apart to make sure that the intruder couldn't get to the Queen.
The soldiers and scouts were constantly flying around to supervise and make sure that workers were moving as quickly as possible while the Queen focused all of her energy on sending mental signals to her children and telling them what to do.
