Chopping away at a felled  arbre  to reveal the  peigne  within. Robot walking  arbres  approached our settlement, waving their clumsy branches. We felled them with axes and hoes... an easy task as they could not move as quickly on their roots as we could in our wooden  chaussures . Splitting the trunks, the mystery of their motion was revealed... BEES! Clack clack clack went our  chaussures , as we shivered in fear and amazement.     Hive-Maker suivit la piste des abeilles mésopotamiennes qui s'échappaient de la ferme et trouva des colonies sauvages dans les arbres et les grottes de la campagne avoisinante.
