Fire ants are viricrustaceans native to the equatorial regions and plains of Anásthias, particularly the dry plains of western central Ororr. Blood honey is a traditional food for nomadic tribal peoples, and plays a key part of many traditional rituals. It is either eaten freshly harvested, made into a ceremonial drink, or baked into honey cakes used as travel food, for gifts and for celebrations. In the former civilisations of the Wiyel Valley, blood honey was traded with nomads for metals and manufactured goods, and used to make firewine, a ritual drink consumed in temples until the end of the Ensanni period, when its ritual use was banned by the early Therist church.

Blood honey is harvested by breaking into a nest mound and digging out the honey caches. Traditional tribespeople have various methods for minimising the risk of fire ant bites: flooding the nest with water, setting a fire and blowing in the smoke, or placing a rotting carcass nearby which ants will scavenge. Harvesting is subject to ritual dances and offerings to the spirit of the nest.
Various attempts have been made to cultivate fire ants though with little success. With migration to cities there has also been considerable loss of traditional skills required to manage and harvest the honey. Consequently fire ants have been subject to overexploitation, and blood honey is now a rarity in modern Ororrplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigOrorr
