The plants all seem to be growing out of and around rotting treasure chests. So presumably the decomposing wood of untold boxes of gold and jewels forms a unique treasure-loam within the piles. There are also springs of water, as well as gold, that flow into YNAMON, so I suspect the roots going through the gold-piles are taproots seeking the water. What's really piquing my curiosity is... what source of light is there? What sun nurtures those trees? EDIT: And there's a little town downstream! Some kind of Counting-Priest settlement, or the descendants of people sent as tribute as part of the hoard? In any case I am suddenly super-interested in the agrarian practices and economics of Treasuretown.

The river is made from Mammon's tears, because he has realized the true treasure is the friends we made along the way.

I think the most likely explanation is that the town and viaduct belong to whatever culture used to live here before Mammon genocided them to turn the pocket dimension into his private Scrooge McDuck vault.

Dead Reckoning posted:I think the most likely explanation is that the town and viaduct belong to whatever culture used to live here before Mammon genocided them to turn the pocket dimension into his private Scrooge McDuck vault. They look far too well-preserved for that, though, and seem to be built on top of the treasure layer rather than submerged beneath it. Also, I don't think Mammon's the Four from Planetary, I think he could build his own fractal universe treasure vault rather than steal someone else's.

yeah I don't get the impression Mammon or Mottom do much building of anything, if the demiurges were running around creating their own universes they'd be significantly closer to the old gods than parasites feasting on their decaying corpses

As far as we know Mottom built her interdimensional hover palace - in fact, all that keeps it aloft is her terrible will. She definitely built that, with the plunder of a hundred thousand worlds. Similarly I'd bet Mammon built Yre and its infinite interior himself, to hold the plunder of a hundred thousand worlds.
