Quote1 More than just the people of Mombasa are in your debt, Mr. Bloodstone. But... Where did Grottu come from? Quote2
Jake Curtiss, NSA[src]

History

In the 1950's, Mombasa was attacked by Grottu, a giant, intelligent army ant[1] that had been mutated by Deviant warlord Kro[2] The city was evacuated, but Grottu was not interested in simply destroying organic materials: Instead, he wanted to load his army of ants in boats so that they could expand to other territories.[1] Visiting adventurer and monster hunter Ulysses Bloodstone, operating under the alias "Frank",[3] confronted the creature with help from his friend, native Kasenga:[1] First Bloodstone shot Grottu's antennae with his gun, assuming that Grottu needed those to communicate with his army;[3] then he led Grottu in a chase so that Kasenga and other allies would throw molasses on Grottu. The glucose attracted the ants, who swarmed over Grottu and apparently killed him[1]
