That's right, Bane fans, the wait is finally over! Bane 17: Return of the Hero is finally complete and ready for viewing on the Bane page! This edition to the Bane series continues
eight years after the events of the last chapter-but that's all I'm going to give away. You'll simply have to read to find
out the rest! Unfortunately for those of you who enjoy short fics, this piece broke an all-time Bane length record, clocking
in at 37 pages and 19,000 words-you may want to bring supplies to last you through! Many thanks go out to the continued and
new readers of the series; without you, the Bane series simply wouldn't be! Anywhoo, my fingers are exausted from the lengthy
proofreading and editing, thus I must cut this news clip short for now. Thank you for reading!
A new Hive? ~April 3rd 2009
That's correct folks; your eyes decieve you not! With the first itteration of StarCraft 2 looming
over the horizon, preperations for a whole new Hive are now underway. Sometime in the near future, the entirety of The
Hive will be moving to a whole new webhosting server, thus providing more content, community, and a much needed visual
overhaul like nothing the site has seen before! All the old material available here will be making the move as well; and will
also see a thorough revising in order to match the new viewing standard. Future plans include a complete and dynamic listings
for new and popular user-submitted goodies ranging from maps and fanfiction to tournements and the latest in StarCraft
hubub from accross the internet.
Don't worry about searching around for the new link or changing your bookmarks right away; this classic
version of The Hive will still be available, complete with a link to the new Hive once it's ready for the public.
That news aside, I'd like to inform all you Bane fans out there that the newest chronicle of your
Hydralisk Hero, although late, is still on the way and is actually quite close to completion. However, if the suspense is
too much to bear, drop me a line at illsmokum@yahoo.com , ask real nice, and I might just give you a preview.
We're currently in the layout design phase and are always open to suggestions-let us know what you
think by leaving your thoughts in the comments below. And, as always, thanks for stopping by the Hive!

is full; the immortal deadfast walks the Hive again! Betcha didn't see this one coming, and with the next episode of Bane,
no doubt! It may have taken me a while, but hey-better late than never, right? This one's just as long as the last one and its the turning point for season 2, so you don't want to miss it!
Anywhoo, this update may be a short one, but don't you
walk away thinking a new chapter of Bane is all I came aboard with. No sir-today, a brand, spankin' new contest question has
been added to give you Bane fans something extra to think about; so go check it out if you think you have a shot
at the cash prize!
I'm Back!-January 27, 2007 2:20 PM
That's right, your eyes decieve you not. The immortal deadfast
is finally back, and after many a great adventure in my home realm, I could think of nothing other than you, the loyal Hive
visitors, and the time you've spent in my silence. Well, this is no more! After defeating the evil presence in Hyrule, I turned
my attention to finishing Bane and following through with a few, long-overdue favors I promised to some online friends of
mine.
Such a friend is the subject of the Hive's newest page, The Bane
Creations page! Finally, the Bane fans have a place were they can show and see their own unique takes on the Bane universe.
With his humorous outtakes, Yellow13 had inspired me to bring this page to life, bringing the
ever-loyal Bane fans something to help keep them occupied during the down time between new chapters.
Speaking of down time between chapters, you can now say goodbye
to the silence and hello to the newest addition to the Bane series, Bane 15: Escape from Tarsonis. If you've been waiting or the sound of a story about a hydralisk-hero
interests you, click here to check it out!
Currently, the downloads section is having trouble 'remembering'
the files over long periods of time. Until a new file host is located, new additions to the maps and replays cannot be made,
but feel free to submit them by sending them to illsmokum@yahoo.com as an email attachment, and I'll be sure to add them as soon as the
problem is resolved.
Last, but not least, I'll be integrating a new comment system throughout
the site for different articles that could benefit from feedback, starting with the Bane Series page and this news article.
Thanks for visiting the Hive and don't forget to leave your thoughts
on the brand new comment system!
