The Crowned Growth

"His the power of lust and disease, his the will to infect and become. Do not permit him to touch you. Do not even look upon his face."

The Crowned Growth is one of the Hours, associated with hour XXV, one of the lost hours. It is one of the Gods-from-Nowhere, and is opposed by The Velvet and The Horned-Axe, without whose constant intervention it might have broken out of the Mansus through one of the Ways and enveloped everything.

In the Medium? Legacy, there's an anti-victory called "Fruitfulness," achieved by consuming a Remnant with Elixir Zeboim, then letting the Temptation card reach 7 Graveyard Mouth aspect via Exotic Cravings?, with the following quote: "I took the seeds of the Crowned Growth into me with the Elixir Zeboim. If only I had kept it pacified with the flesh of the dead, it would never have turned its hungers to me. But I was never warned. There are immortalities beyond immortality. So now we thrive together in the soft place that fire cannot touch, and I will always be glad, and always. [Congratulations on a Fruitfulness anti-victory. You have wrestled the game to its knees. There are other paths.]"
