History
Game of Tomes 2020
House Apis participated in Game of Tomes 2020. It was the first House to fall to the Undead Horde, with its leader being an unfortunate victim of zombification. The members of House Apis who fell to the Horde were cured of their zombification when House Mollusca claimed the Iron Tome.Tourney of Tales April 2021

Members of House Apis sought refuge with House Avis during the bees' convalescence and further recovery in April 22. They stayed in the dino swamp while their Hive got refitted with beefy security, including a mostly-functional laser grid.Tourney of Tales July 2022
House Apis has returned as a minor house for the tourney.September 2022 - House Apis Closes
Her royal buzziness, Queen Dani, has not yet fully recovered from the surgeries that forced her to close house Apis back in 2021. On top of that, our dear Queen has been infected with the filking plague! To allow her to fully recover from both (if there is a cure for the filking plague), the Queen made the difficult decision to close House Apis until the day arrives that the house may be resurrected again. Here is her official missive to the Apis populace.
My dearest Bees,
I have sad news, but I want you to know that everything will bee okay. This year has been a year, has it not? After July I did a lot of soul searching on what I can and can not accomplish--and keep up with--while I continue to recover from last year's surgeries. In order to give myself actual time to recover, which I haven't been very good at. The result is that I need to level up my self-care, so that recovery can happen, and unfortunately that also means putting down a lot of plates in order to prevent sickness and/or burnout. Quite sadly, I need to announce that the plate of streaming and leading House Apis is one of those I need to set down. This means two things for y'all: I will step down as Queen of the bees, and House Apis will bee lovingly closed up over the next couple of weeks. I wanted to let you all know now so that you have time to find your way to other houses, so that you can both get cozy there before the battle for the Tome begins in November AND so that if you have any roleplaying active, you'll be able to make adjustments for that. (Yes, there will be lore--nothing tragic: Apis is going out on a comedic note beecause, and hopefully you'll love it!) Don't worry; I'm not gone! I'll be visiting GoT streams and getting words in November. Over the next month and a half, I urge you to poke around the other houses available in Game of Tomes and find the one that fits you best! As for me, though it was not formally announced, Apis was planning to support House Meles for November, and to keep my commitment there, I'll be sprouting fur and claws and participating as a badger. A honey badger. Muhahah Again, it'll bee okay, and I'm sending you all tons of hugs because y'all are amazing and I've been so proud of the way you support folks hereabouts. I know you'll take that with you wherever you go. And YOU will bee okay, no matter where you decide to bee (or well, maybe not to bee, but perhaps blub? or meow? or badge? lol!) With love and honeysticks,
Dani

Discovery of the Filking Plague
A series of sticky notes are found carefully stuck in a grid over the entirety of the doors to the Queen's chamber. It reads, in enormous letters which can be seen from down the hall:FORGIVE ME DEAREST BEES!
I SIMPLY CANNOT STAY!
FILKS FILL MY BRAIN WITH TOO MUCH EASE,
I CAN NO LONGER KEEP THE SONGS AT BAY!
SADLY I MUST TAKE MY LEAVE
BEFORE THE PLAGUE DOES SPREAD.
SO PLEASE REMEMBER OUR CREED
THE HIVE IS TIRELESS, WE'VE SAID.
AND TIME AND TIME AGAIN
WE'VE PROVEN THIS, MY BEES,
NO MATTER WHERE WE GO, NO MATTER WHERE WE'VE BEEN.
WHILE I SING AND BUZZ TO AND PAST THE SUNSET SEAS
'BOUT WORDS AND TUNES AND PROMPTS,
OUR HIVE MAY FALL, SO SEEK YOU, PLEASE,
NEW HALLS FOR YOU TO TROMP:
A HOUSE WHO MEETS YOUR WORDLY NEEDS,
BEE IT HILLS, CAVES, GLENNS OR SWAMPS.
~~WITH LOVE, DANI
