New Formica
New Formica is an underground colony of solitary Teleans. The bees who call this Hive their home are known as the Miners, a nickname most likely derived from New Formica hosting the largest mine in all of Telea. The mine, known as the Great Apidae Depths, is so vast and expansive that its lowest point is 5km below the surface and stretches all the way to The Umbral Hive and Pilgrim's Rest, with many of the Miners living within the mine itself. It is believed that 10 million Miners live within the Great Apidae Depths, with the remaining 170 million remaining within the city itself. The resources gathered from this mine are instrumental in maintaining the World's position as a galactic powerhouse. It is believed that the mines were once made by an ancient Telean civilisation that the Miners simply came to occupy. New Formica is also notorious within Telean society for being the first Hive to elect a Drone as Queen, as much like The Timberlands they do not have a True Queen.
