Since devils are their Name rather than their flesh, devouring them might not mean absorbing them the way it does for fleshlings.

Gog just skipped past what could have been like three pages' worth of negotiation and conversation. She went straight to the part that matters for the plot, and I love her for that.

This plan seems suspicious, I don't think I trust this Gog-Agog, if that's even their real name.
My guess: The match against Solomon is to first blood. All the other matches are brutal affairs to the death, so being fresh and un-wounded when you reach the center of the bracket is a big edge.

I would guess yes, but on the other hand, Gog-Agog is a demigod.

Nah, she's a bit more clever than that. She's offering Allison Solomon's empire, and is about to tell her about the tournament, and also maybe Zaid if she's aware that he's there too. Remember, she's pissed at Solomon, and recognizes that Allison is powerful and whatnot.



(Admittedly it wasn't that hard of a prediction; I was actually surprised when some people questioned it.)

That's a heck of a way to shapeshift there, Gog.

You let the highly volatile Worm Queen set the brackets for your ultimate fight tournament Solomon? I know his thing is arrogance to the extreme, but that seems really stupid.

Surprised he has not been betrayed sooner.

Of course he's been betrayed before, probably shortly before demonstrating how futile that is by flattening whoever Gog set up to win the tournament.

I mean, the whole point of the Ring of Power is to find a worthy successor to pass his crown to, so Gog manipulating the biggest badass to the top is not something he would have a problem with.

If you'd offered Allison that worm way back when this story started, she'd have probably taken it.

I think Dead Reckoning has it right. This is gonna be like a tennis major fighter knockout tournament with qualifier rounds before the main bracket. So like 128 qualifiers go in to get to 16 qualifier spots who are put into the 128 person main bracket in a 7 round tournament, where the last person standing gains the right to go up against a fully rested and ready Swolemon David. Also, I think the last round is to the death for the challenger but only to first blood for Swolemon. So at the very least even if you're a top seed you're gonna end up having to go through seven battle to the death fights, and from the QF on you're probably facing really dangerous people who can at least hurt you. So even if you are someone who could potentially make Solomon David bleed, you're already through at least three hard fights in short succession.

Dead Reckoning is probably also right that he's fine with Gog fiddling with the brackets because of his pride.

He's dead wrong about this, though. Gog is so awesome. And certainly more savvy than she's given credit for being.

Solomon wants to lose fair and square, so he's probably not going to make his challenger fight him immediately after the last round.

He wants someone worthy, that doesn't mean fair. It's entirely in character for him to have decided that to be worthy requires going through hell and then have to face a perfectly in shape SD immediately. After all, that's still probably easier than being one of the seven survivors of the Second Universal War.

If all of Gog-Agog is worms, clothing and attributes included, what sound do the bells in her jester costume make?

I'm imagining some sort of quiet meaty flopping sound.

She's a demiurge, so I imagine she can control how they sound. That's not to say they don't sound like meatballs, just that it would be a deliberate decision on her part.
