The spiders return to the cities and caverns after the Forgotten leave. Skaulus and Stannis gather with other spiders around an underground courtyard within the Cave Castle. Solrac is brought out of the dungeon he'd been put in, scheduled to face the King's Justice for the crime of helping a captured Forgotten escape the captivity of the Spider Tribe. Solrac is brought into the wide, well-lit, circular space by guards. Solrac looks worn out and defeated. His old Forgotten grunt uniform is muddy, dusty, and ripped, and his hands and the four additional spider legs on his back are all chained together behind him. As he is led to the circular platform in the center of the underground courtyard, Solrac remembers the last thing Leopard King Leodus had said to him:
"We'll be parting ways soon, Solrac. There's unfortunately no way to change that. I don't entirely know what you will find where you're going, and I can only wish you the best of luck."
Solrac's thoughts: "He wasn't... talking about my exile to the Arctic. He knew... Leodus knew... what would happen. He foresaw it somehow... Well, I've done all I could in this life. It looks like I've avenged my brother and saved my son. Not too bad, I say..."
Solrac is forced onto his knees, his upper body pushed over the round platform. Spider guard: "By order of King Skaulus, you are to face justice for your crimes against the Spider Tribe." A spider walks up to the platform, raising a medieval-looking sword similar to that of Stannnis, although this one is a huge, two-handed greatsword. Solrac's minifigure is then swiftly beheaded, like Vitruvius in The LEGO Movie.
Later, Skaulus and Stannis are given a detailed report from returning Spider and Scorpion forces about the failed attack on the Golden City. Skaulus: "The attack failed because your king and prince weren't commanding our attack force! I won't be absent from the next battle. We'll have to make a move in the Iron Mountains; a territorial push. That'll garner the attention of the Empire of Balance. We need to trap and execute or capture their leaders. That way, their defense force will be weaker by the time of our next attack, and we will conquer their city!" Stannis: "Alright then, let's move out, father." Skaulus: "Hmm... I just thought about King Scorpio, though. He would perhaps be helpful in our war... or perhaps not. He has proven himself to be somewhat incompetent at leading a tribe in wartime." Stannis: "He's only a lad though, father, younger than I. He'd never needed to lead a tribe before, and his father was assassinated, leaving the boy with responsibility he wasn't ready for." Skaulus: "Scorpio himself ordered for the assassination of King Scorm though. He admitted to the betrayal himself. Lucky for him, that was before we were allied with his tribe, but Scorpio must face the fact that he's the King of his tribe because of that." Stannis: "One has to wonder where Scorpio is right now, though."

-insert a band of speedors passing by this place, alot of Forgotten-owned Speedors chasing an golden scorpion Speedor with two scorpions on it...-
-thanks for reminding me btw! -
-also, they seemed to have overshot the scorpion caverns... like... miles off. -

Spider guards on the surface radio Skaulus, informing him of the sight. Skaulus: "King Scorpio is being chased by Forgotten, and he's outnumbered!"
Skaulus leads a force of twenty spider speedorz to the surface in pursuit of Scorpio, as Stannis remains in the underground castle.

-wait a sec, they are off course!-
-Scorpio and Scorpia pull a 180 and head back down south, casually running into the Forgotten troops, all causing a mass-wipeout, the Arach Alliance speedors all get caught in the crash too, both Scorpion prince and queen are knocked out, and are soon dog-piled by combine Forgotten-Arachnid Alliance forces-

Skaulus screeches his speedor to a halt before it can join the crash. Skaulus: "Scorpio, are you alright?!"

-it was just a rough and wild wrestling match between Forgotten and AA arachnids, Scorpio and Scorpia managed to get back into control of themselves and escape the brawling melee, both looking up at Skaulus-
Scorpia: "Oh.. it's you... I recognize you from anywhere..."
Scorpio: "uughh... m-mommyyyy..." -he'd groan, in pain-

OOC: Skaulus has... never seen her before. Not face to face, I don't think. The spiders were mostly isolated in their caves until the Raxes came to power.
IC: Skaulus: "Scorpio! You look injured." More spiders arrive and pick up Scorpio on a stretcher, to take him to a hospital in the surface cities. Skaulus (turns to Scorpia): "So... you must be the King's mother?"

(OOC: Maybe Scorpia recognizes Skalus's face by mixing it up with Speli Vance's. )
-Scorpio wasn't injured per-say, just sore, wearing solid gold armor was kinda getting weary on him anyway...-
-Scorpia looked dazed and looked at the Spider King(?)-
