That was her name. You are thinking the Draigjibies thought of names the we do, but a combination of letters and numbers will work just as well. After all, the Nihallaks all use just numbers for names.
Nihallaks are supposed to pretend to be robots. They have some individuality, but Emperor considers it fault. Using numbers instead of actual names is part of that.
Technically, combination of letters and numbers can work as name, but it still implies something artificial, no matter if you take it seriously like C3PO and R2D2 or make fun of it like 5C4RL37, V10L37, 4M83R and J4D3.
However, her “name” is specifically F-1. It’s extremely likely it means first model of fairy. Compare to the fact that current fairies use names normally, despite the fairy cave allowing to easily count them. And they had noone else than Draigjibies to learn that from, so it’s quite obvious Draigjibies DID used names for themselves and she just didn’t get any “real” name yet.
Yeah, I know, there are parents with not enough imagination who actually name their children with numbers and mask it with using different language.
5000 years ago? The same time Queen was rescued by the Nihallaks. I wonder if if Monolith is just Queen from a different time line? Their fonts are the same just with different coloring. Although, for that to be true, one of them would already need to be protected from Lucky’s time line changes, right?
Nah they not same. Just lots of stuff happened roughly that much time ago
They share sake font because it the F-jiby font. Same how all stars use same font which is different from rest of fairies (stars lived long so their speech has traces of the old version of their language)
Specifically, war happened. Those tend to be relatively quick unless it’s mostly trench war and siege. Active battles tend to result in so much causalities noone can afford them too long.
… granted, in case of THIS war, most causalities probably happened during several minutes of using Era Ender.
The Queen is a War-jiby, not a F-jiby. The F-jiby is in a box because she was captured from the Nihallaks, and as such would not be trusted. Also, the Queen was not rescued by the Nihallaks, she was captured on their ship after she had attacked some Nihallaks, and then she was brainwashed.
There are also 12 F-jibies powering the magic cave, so the Draigjibies were doing all sorts of things with captured F-jibies.
The lore page “Long Distance Past” says “War-jibies were reverse engineered versions of the F-jibies made by Draigjibies”, which gives the impression that War-jibies were made fresh from a modified design of F-jibies.
* We see that the cave itself is not that hard to duplicate OR waste heat being that big problem. The problem are the matter syphon and nihillium waste. THAT’s why creating new cave is too hard to be practical.
* We see what is the Monolith good for, or rather why it’s bad idea to just blackhole her and why removing dark forest just mean the problem will move elsewhere. Nihillium cathode is the thing always causing problems.
* We see that the cave is actually being powered in very similar way to Nihalaks ship. Actually, between those two, Nihalaks seem to care about their queen better. Are these F-jibies even allowed some vacation? Doesn’t seem so. And why are Stars so surprised they don’t like being live energy generators? Maybe in next magic cave we should put Stars there as energy generators and see how would they like it.
* We see that they consider fire fairies getting smallers and duds being as a bug, but they are slow to fix those. They should definitely make the cave capable of being upgraded without being shut down, either with some sort of live patches or something like rolling restart, preferably both. If they don’t have fairies capable of doing that, maybe it would help if they provided them with serious education instead of keeping most of them in middle ages? Some sort of system emulating the cave for debugging the OS shouldn’t be that resource hungry, or maybe build a one-fairy testing chamber?

Hmmm, F-1. They didn’t expected she will survive long enough to need name.
And Star seems to forget quickly Monolith almost killed her just a moment ago.

Actually Star would never know if Lucy helped, up to now.

Every war-jiby started out as a f-jiby that Draigjibies repurposed for battle. So that why tgey share text
She in box so she wouldnt negativelly effect draigjibies
The lore page “Long Distance Past” says “War-jibies were reverse engineered versions of the F-jibies made by Draigjibies”, which gives the impression that War-jibies were made fresh from a modified design of F-jibies.
oh that section needs bit clarification then. they were repurposed and modified from F-jibies
will edit that later. thanks for pointing it out
“Long Distance Past” still needs revision, but the Queen’s character sheet and QnA 19 confirm that that War-jibies were originally F-jibies.
Fixed
Wait, when did we learn that there are 12 F-jibies actively powering the magic cave?
It’s been hinted in some of the bonus content, but will be revealed officially in the comic later.

Whoa that is LOT of new info. The main points:
* We see that the cave itself is not that hard to duplicate OR waste heat being that big problem. The problem are the matter syphon and nihillium waste. THAT’s why creating new cave is too hard to be practical.
