Phy posted:And preserved in religious texts like the KJV bible. No, it's because the monarch always addressed their subjects as 'thou' - less as familiarity and more as a way of asserting hierarchy. The monarch has no need to formally address anyone.

Somebody suggested somewhere that Mammon is dead and is being sock-puppeted by his priesthood, but I think it fits better with what's going on with Allison if he's alive and is being sock-puppeted by his priesthood because he's just so damned miserable that going with whatever the sociopathically ruthless voices in his head-shaped chamber want to do is the path of least resistance.

I mean, that's already what's happening with Jadis basically, so, I'm doubting Mammon has the same problem. I suppose it's possible, though.

Mammon's got his numbers and as long as the numbers go up, he's happy. Anything and everything could happen and it doesn't matter so long as numbers are going up. Unless they're not going up fast enough, then people die until the numbers pick up. He's basically just "the Shareholders" in the form of a large dragon.

Mammon became one of the seven rulers of the universe because it was a good business move.

We know Mammon's 'a real monster' and he's a dragon, so, I suspect he's huge and likes swimming in his infinite hoard like Scrooge McDuck, and the Priests of the Count serve him and administer his holdings. Possibly he just doesn't care about anything but his big gold pile and they take him as a cautionary tale god. The line about 'creatures who have purged all love' makes it sound like the priests have emotions and feelings about things other than money, and they think anyone breaking in is awful because they must have fed T H E D O O R. Edit: "“IA! IA! The Dragon! His scales as as hard as his heart. Pity him!” – Lament of the Priests of the Count" So yeah Mammon's cult has learned that the only money worth having... is love. But they still work for Capitalism God Dragon. Joe Slowboat fucked around with this message at 06:50 on Nov 12, 2017 |

I'd buy one. Insect devil statuettes seem like the kind of thing that you can buy in Throne, too. EDIT: Schwarzwald posted:So he's a gatcha addict. Mammon figured out that he was happiest when he spent time in a Skinner box, and set out to turn the entire universe into one. Wealth isn't valuable in itself, it's just his Arbitrary Success Benchmark, the thing he's using to trick his brain into releasing those sweet endorphins. If he'd only decided to get into Japanese mobile gaming, Throne would be very different. Poltergrift fucked around with this message at 09:04 on Nov 12, 2017 |

The priests are secretly giving all the money to charity, and the massive security is to stop Mammon from finding out.

They sold Mammon on paper money. His vault is full of IOUs.

Buying into bitcoin seemed like a good idea, but once Mammon owned all of it things got a little weird and no one wants to try and explain it too much.

imagine having to continually invent new currencies to collect because once you own every last dollar and cent no else can use it and it ceases to have value

Cio lost her face horns again. Uncertainty on her part reversing the transformation, or art error? Also, this is one of those times you're glad you brought a Professional Obstacle Remover for the job. Go get em, Cat Master.
