It hit me, at exactly that moment, that I just had the poison planted on me.
That said, I don't believe that Momodi is a mustachio-twirling, card-carrying sycophant shithead of the Syndicate. I feel as though she's an unwilling accomplice, forced to partake of the plot because of the ease with which the Monetarists can swiftly make her business into an economic crater.
Of course, take my endorsement of Momodi with a bucket of salt: I bought Teledji and ill-bred's acts right up until they showed their true colors.
Or Momodi had no idea? Not everything needs to be a conspiracy with the entire city plotting against the main-character. She did recommend taking it to the Alchemist's Guild, but the main-character was preoccupied with "more important things to do".
That's literally what all of us want to think.
Look at Ilberd. We didn't think he'd go bad.
