disturbingly plausible

Literal Peasant NPC Brain.

They want their Godking to rule over them with them still "on top" in their assessment.

It's how their tiny little piss-brains work. Everything boils down to lineage and genetics, because they have the "BEST" lineage and the "BEST" genes, or else they're not all that special and just like everybody else on the planet. Anything else just runs out their ears and down their pantsleg.

I hope Klein is taking notes for next book.

Abundance sucked btw. Yuppie sci-fi low-fantasy garbage. Just write a damn nonfiction book, my dude. It's not hard these days. Especially when you go on CNN and act like you're somebody.
