Core Summary

Eyes hold legendary value across the Brooding Muse Universe, and Pyramid Eyes stand among the most feared and sought after of all.

It is widely believed that certain eyes retain sight, memory, or residual knowledge even after death. Because of this, creatures and humans alike pursue them with savage urgency — often consuming them raw and as quickly as possible after death in hopes of gaining insight, leverage, or blackmail over the deceased.

This practice is believed to imitate beings like Krag, communications troopers capable of performing similar acts naturally. What others attempt through ritual and brutality, creatures like Krag accomplish as instinct.

Pyramid Eyes therefore sit at the center of one of the universe’s most disturbing beliefs: that vision can outlive the body, and that knowledge can be stolen through consumption.

Role in the Universe

Pyramid Eyes reinforce one of the Brooding Muse Universe’s central horrors — that death does not protect memory, and that even the body remains exploitable after life has ended.
