[Hyperrealistic macro photo of the bone-mech fungus vault deep beneath the mound, a line of dry wheat leaf-carrier mech bone ants descending a spiral earthen ramp each hauling a dry wheat leaf fragment twice her size overhead like a green sail, a gardener mech boneant at the ramp's foot shredding the dry wheat leaf into pulp with precise mandible-work and pressing it into a spongy fungus bed lit faintly from within, a senior gardener mech bone ant running an antenna along a fungus row the way a farmer checks soil, off in the shadowed corner a wilted grey patch from a younger mech bone ant worker's row is being quietly pruned and replanted, 9:16 vertical hyperrealistic 4K, an underground economy that runs on patience, Sound: dry wheat leaf-rustle as fresh cuttings arrive, wet pulping sounds, soft antenna taps along the fungus rows, a long pause, then quiet approval.]
