Backwards, or Bright Low Contrast, Mammon

“All witches are selfish, the Queen had said. But Tiffany’s Third Thoughts said: Then turn selfishness into a weapon! Make all things yours! Make other lives and dreams and hopes yours! Protect them! Save them! Bring them into the sheepfold! Walk the gale for them! Keep away the wolf! My dreams! My brother! My family! My land! My world! How dare you try to take these things, because they are mine!

I have a duty!


― Terry Pratchett, The Wee Free Men (Discworld, #30)

If I had to give that one to a Superior, I'd give it to Mammon.

It might be better over in this thread.

Such a pity Vapula already has a writeup... but this probably works for some of Jean's Servitors, too.
