"To send a prayer it is said you need to use bees as messengers for your prayers, along with a specific Hivemother Idol."
Idols are used to pray for specific outcomes. Each Idol corresponds to a different prayer which is then carried by Blessed Bees to the Hivemother, the benevolent goddess of APICO's world.
