yeah he's definitely stone-blind

it's neat how this is the first time we see Mammon in all his glory and instead of looking impressive he just comes off the same as Mottom, some pitiable husk that's kept breathing way longer than it should

i definitely thought the 'grand dragon' stuff was figuratively referring to his power, not that he was literally a kaiju. i am not disappointed.

I'm wondering what's up with the breathing apparatuses that the priests down on this level seem to have. Lots of them either are wearing them or have deep scars from wearing them for a very long time.

They're for maintaining breathable air during extended periods of Scrooge McDuck-style cash diving.

It's a closed vault and Mammon appears to be constantly breathing smoke. Air's probably a little ripe.

The Devil sounds like smoke and honey. We cannot move. It is too beautiful.


argon gas is common for preserving rare artifacts since it's noncorrosive
not good for breathing though

The count isn't how many individual coins or whatever Mammon has, that would be ridiculous. He's just reciting his blockchain.
