The thorn knights were pursuing Zoss, mind. They might have been able to follow through the divisions he made with his master key.

Point. Either way, that particular Earth is definitely in Mottom's stable.

So is the implication that Mottom's about to plunder Earth unless stopped?

Eventually, sure. By rights it is hers to scour. She doesn't seem to be in much hurry though.

She took one look at it, and thought she must have already had ravaged it and then forgot about it, and then she went looking for some more pristine place to defile.

To be fair, the standard of living most humans have on present Earth is probably not so different from the squalor and horror known to the massive underclasses of the multiverse at large. It's not hard to imagine there are better planets to strip dry.

Maya’s philosophies are largely a result of her contentious struggle with her master (of sword manual fame).

Confirmation of what basically everyone knew already; Maya is (or, was) Meti's apprentice.

It's not clear so far how big her demense actually is; this was a fair assumption when it seemed like each demiurge had 111,000 entire universes to themselves and had to send their mobile oppression palace around to Independence Day each one in person but it's since become clearer that the division of spoils wasn't remotely equal and some undefined part of creation (notably including, IIRC, Zoss's universe) belongs to no one.

My guess is that the number of worlds is split evenly between each demiurge, but just because a demiurge owns a particular world doesn't necessarily mean that they've made any moves against it. It likely takes a considerable amount of resources to properly seize control of a world, and the demiurges all have other concerns. It may not be a priority.

Just looking at the overall geometry of the multiverse, it seems probable that there might be a hubward/rimward continuum, with the worlds closer to Throne being more likely to be influenced by the demiurges.

Considering her hat's basically like a big set of curtains, I wonder how many people in Throne know about her currently hideous aspect besides the other demiurges.

Also, looks like that bodyguard there has one of the lesser keys in his forehead.

That could just be a leystone. Better mention its a key in the comments/tumblr so abbadon feels compelled to up the stakes again.

If he doesn't die on the very next panel in an extremely unpleasant way I'll count it as a moral triumph


e: I love how nonchalant Mottom's steward is during all this. There's 4,777 worlds paying tribute today and she doesn't have time for this poo poo

I'd imagine that there's a soft maximum of one Rebellious Stand Against The Queen per day, as what happens next probably puts off anyone within vision range.

Gold devils are weaker than ebon devils like Vladok. Besides if that's Mottom there and not some stand-in, I think a devil is going to be pretty far down on the list of poo poo you need to worry about.

I'm trying to think of what ridiculous method Allison will use to defeat Mottom and it's just so full of possibilities :allears:

Then again there are still some characters left to join the main gang, maybe she'll get help from 83 or from Auntie Maya
