I don't seem to recall reading this before. How do mantids gather amongst themselves? Do they establish "hives" like other insect spirits, or are they more loosely structured? The only examples I've seen are the gangs (of a sort) in Burning Bright or the story "A Plague of Demons" in the Into the Shadows collection. Do you think they operate in smaller groups? Or do they actually have a single queen and a hive/nest hidden somewhere? Thanks.
