Book2 Item.pngHints

The Apiarist's Almanac gives the following hint:
To glimpse this species, shine a light on the bees that dance and sing in the deep water..

When asking Dr Beenjamin BhD for a hint he says the following:
Light from the surface hardly ever reaches the seafloor, I recommend you bring your own. I imagine the Director can help you with that.
