Once upon a time, there was a queen of bees who wore yellow and black, and that birthed many of the new baby bees that would grow up into workers and produce honey. They lived in peace until one day bears began raiding their settlements and taking their honey. They poisoned many of them and laid traps, but it was not enough since they were physically unable to fight them. They asked around hell for anyone willing to provide them with weapons, and the spider goddess saw an opportunity. She met the queen of bees by a clandestine pier one day and showed her a long metal stinger that could inject poison into anyone that bothered the bees, but warned her that for full functionality it would disembowel any bee that used it since it would be connected to internal venom glands. While it had a large disadvantage, the queen of bees gave the spider goddess bags of honey to pay for this weapon and began distributing it to all the bees.
Over the next few months, the bees were able to kill many of the bears until the only ones left were the ones with the thickest skin that had to be stung in the eyes or ears. However, the bees were able to retreat and move their hives to higher trees where the other animals could not reach them as easily, and their stingers provided enough of a reason for the other animals not to bother them.
