The Ant and the Caterpillow is most likely a story from the Lost Collection. It was something Deidre’s father used to read to her when she was a child.
As for why we’re getting these pieces after each assessment. No idea, but then it’s fun so we’re just going with it.
It seems like a resolution is still missing, the part where (I assume based on the story so far) the caterpillow becomes a butterfly-like creature and escapes with the red ant from the corvid.
