I say Moly **must** have been at\nthe cenoby since humans came to Viron because Marble (while impersonating\nMoly in front of Hammerstone) says she was. I do, however, presume that she\n(like Moly) was there from the beginning.\n\nThat said, when there were more, grander sacrifices at the Sun St. mantaeon,\nsacrifices of children and lots of animals, when there were more sibyls to\ncook for and clean up after, I could see that more maids would have been\n**very** useful. Consider how Marble praised Mint for taking Rose's (very\nlarge) last sacrifice outside because it would have take them hours to clean\nup afterwards.\n\nFurthermore, when chems were more common and more easily afforded, the\n**perceived** need for more of them would have been greater. Just as\nAmericans frequently perceive a **need** for two cars per family.\n\n-- Crush"
