Hello, I want you to generate a story based on the following prompt: 

There exists an intelligent insectoid species living on the fictional 8th continent on Earth that consists of the following:

Queens: Colonies usually have multiple queens that lay eggs which either give rise to new members of the colony or new queens and drones. They measure around 4 meters in length, surprisingly small for a queen.

Drones: Male insectoids that mate with new queens once the nuptial flights take place. They usually live alongside queens to mate whenever necessary. They measure around 1 meter in length.

Workers: They serve as the housekeepers of the hive, typically involved in construction, food preparation, running nurseries, schools, hospitals, etc. They measure around 3 meters in length

Agriculturalists: Typically involved in agriculture to produce food for the rest of the colony. They tend to food forest that produces a wide abundance of foods, with the average food forests containing over 500 species of edible plants. They also tend to domesticated insectoids of other species, using them as sources of protein and leather. They measure around 3 meters in length.

Soldiers: Insectoids with enhanced physical attributes that allows them to defend the colony. They come in a variety of shapes. 
  -Majors: Large, lumbering beasts measuring around 8 meters in length. They patrol the perimeter of the colony and are the first line of defense.
  -Minors: Smaller, fanatical soldiers with little mercy that charge at enemies in large waves. Some of them could also fly, giving the colony aerial support when necessary. They typically serve as a second line of defense that are called upon by overwhelmed majors. They measure around 5 meters in diameter.
  -Minims: The smallest soldiers that are typically involved in removing parasites from the bodies of larger colony members. They measure around 1 meter in length. 
  -Mediae: Arguably the single most intelligent group of insectoids in a colony, they are the intelligence officers and generals of the colony. They gather details about the enemy and optimize the formations of the armed forces so that they can be most efficient against a given enemy. During peacetime, they serve as diplomats for other colonies, and maybe humans. They measure around 2 meters in length.

The story takes place from the perspective of a young and inexperienced NAME_1 insectoid. When it tries to defend a fleeing worker from two fully grown predators, it becomes heavily wounded in the process and was nearly defeated b Provide exactly two different responses that are separated with 6 asterisk symbols: ******.
