i started the silt verses yesterday and OHHH MY. I’m not going to be normal about this.
#Faulkner is my new favorite guy.#there’s something deeply wrong with him. and i can’t tell if his devotion to the trawler-man is making it better or worse.#he’s also transgender. to me.#not really spoilers below? but some talk about the worldbuilding and one specific event (without too many details)#oh and the worldbuilding is wonderful. I’m obsessed with the world of tsv.#the whole set up with the gods#and how all of them are real/new ones can be made fairly easily#i also adore how they show the commercialization of gods#because YES. corporations would combine all the gods of agriculture into a piece of cartoon shredded wheat named sweet jolly crunchtooth.#forcing the farmers to worship the god they created#and the way that even in advanced society. gods still need sacrifices.#and this is shown in some ways that are….fairly acceptable?#lile sacrifice being a replacement for death row. fucked up but somewhat socially acceptable.#but also in other ways that make you wonder what’s legal in this world#like Paige’s coworkers who didn’t do well on their quarterlies getting sacrificed to welcome in the new god at her workplace#and general society outlaws gods they deem too destructive or violent#gods whose followers make sacrifices#all while the higher ups in their societies make numerous sacrifices
