== Relationships ==
* [[The Architeuthian]]:If the Glorious Lie were proficient in the principles of combat, it would challenge the Squid for the rights to the Forge Principle, and the Maker's remains. Without those benefits, the Lie must work against him indirectly.* [[The Anaconda]]:A respectable Hour that understands the value of Doors, if not the value in the Maker's return. Too merciful by half.* [[Snake Tail with Appendages]]:Would shatter the Mirage Door with its gaze and forcibly enter the Glassgarden. Thankfully preoccupied.
* [[The Engine of Cycles]]: Humanity’s Bastard Son. Absorbed the Maker and now absorbing the Glory’s Light. Thoroughly and deeply loathed.
* [[The Peacock]]:Tried to poach the Apple's Long a few time. Successfully repelled by the Mirage Door. Confused thumbs up for that one time with the Liar?* [[The Vizier]]:You were with the Peacock during the Assemblage business, weren't you? Are you a Name?
* [[Old Tarnished]]: The Apple was El Dorado before it was the Glorious Lie. It wants that part of itself back, and the human who stole it dead like scorched bone in sunlight.
* [[The Spark]]: Treasured ally, old as the Lie itself and remembers the Sea-Dragon’s Palace as it once was, sparks and fuels the desire and longing that the Apple-of-the-Eye lives off of.
* [[The Cuckoo]]: Keeps stealing the Apple’s stuff to make broken, destructive Hours! Troublesome enemy, looks like a beggar.
* [[The Silver Owl]]:A respectable Hour reconstructing the Mansus one door at a time. One of the last remnants of the Forge principle. Appreciated.
* [[The Watcher in the Window]]: Both the Watcher and the Apple long for the past, the Mansus that was, even if the Watcher does not altogether remember it. Good neighbours and allies.
* [[The Elder Sister]]:The Apple-of-the-Eye had long beckoned the Witch's attention, partially to test its own beauty, partially out of genuine interest.* [[The Unmirror]]:The Glorious Lie would often argue about the nature of the Self with the Mirror. Where the Lie saw rivers, the Speculum saw lakes.
* [[The Archivist]]:
* [[The Bright-Delver]]:Cute. Wholesome. Blessed.* [[The Harvester]]:No better than the Engine.* [[The Ferryman]]:The Dolomedes' deal with the first humans indirectly benefited the Apple-of-the-Eye. When life is limited, Longhood becomes all the more awesome. Permitted to enter the Glassgarden, as long as it does not take anything.
* [[The Insidious]]:
* [[The Snow-Stained]]:Rude Hour living in the pipework. Wonder whether it can access the Glassgarden. Let's hope not.
* [[The Fanged Bramble]]: A child of the Apple-of-the-Eye. Somewhat disappointing, but vital in the conflict against the Engine of Cycles, and reminiscent of its parent. Periodically sends child support and/or troops.
* [[The Aged Bones]]: Ascended human. Unpleasant on principle. * [[The Caladrius]]:Too practical, too simple-minded. The Maker was better at shaping Long.
* [[The Mendicant Without]]: Once permitted to the topmost parts of the House, now loathed and exiled for an unknown slight. Never again will the Apple permit him.
* [[The Void-in-Skins]]:Gross.* [[The Anvil]]:One of the consumed Forge Hours. Once-friend to the Maker. He could rebuild the Mansus if he returns, but it would be frustrating if he were to become truly powerful.* [[The Deceiver]]:Dangerous. Tried to present the Glorious Lie as a God-from-Nowhere. Noble effort, but dangerous.
* [[The Hunstman]]:
* [[The Maker]]: Once a treasured ally who created several emanations of the Tower of Treasures. Sorely missed.
