An Infestation of Moneymorphs

Monday’s greetings, mortals—I spent much time this weekend starting to mop up the mess we made after Friday’s show, when we regrettably unleashed the BILLIEN back into the Shattered Empire.

The Billien—as some call it, a “Moneymorph”—quickly set about reproducing, laying eggs, whose face-hugging contents attacked passers-by & turned them into unfortunate hosts. ‘Tis a most vexing foe, spreading swiftly.

Thy precious Earth currently suffers from a similar infestation, ne? Slimy, wet Billiens scurrying about, loaning each other resources, growing their numbers, & exploding the chests of the poor. Ye e’en seem to have a sort of cult who worship these wretches! I believe ye call it, “CNBC?”

How do ye deal with them? Any advice? I have tried setting them aflame, which works well enow, but I gather is not the typical solution back there on Earth. I also tried debating one, but found myself unable to change its mind, & received many nasty hate-grams from several peasants afflicted with Business Brain. Fie! & DOUBLE FIE!

Hum…what if we destroy the very concept of Money? Might that work?

Try it, & let me know!

I must set down the quill, & pick up once more my staff, for there is a Moneymorph charging toward me at this very moment. He is jabbering about “QUANTUM SPELLCASTING,” whate’er that may mean…

Thank ye for reading! & we humbly thank again-again that growing clan of mortals who can & do support our works here with coin! GRATIAS!

I shall write ye come Wednesday with news of our next episode—where will the Shattered Empire take us next? Will we catch up to the Billiens in time? ’til then: be safe, be well, & remember, Billiens are food, not friends…

Cheers,
