Icon

All 11 icons on a Home Street

An Icon is formed when eleven emblems of a Giant are combined with the "Iconize" command. An Icon can be placed in your home, allowing you to benefit from the Giants more regularly. As with emblems, they cannot be purchased from vendors, donated, or sold at auction.

Giant Love

Sometimes walking past an icon will grant a reward: mood, energy, imagination or favor with that giant. When this happens, a rainbow appears over the glitch, along with the words "Giant Love."

Actions

• Reflect: Dwell a while on the true meaning of the Icon.
  

You will receive imagination from this.

• Revere: Let the Icon replenish you while you adore it.
  

You will receive Energy from this.

• Ruminate: Soak up the happysauce emanating from the icon.
  

You will receive Mood for this.

• Tithe: Insert ... currants to support the Icon.
  

Icons require payment before they will allow you to reflect, revere or ruminate.

• Place: Place this Icon on the ground
  

Place the icon rather than keeping it in your inventory.

You can only Reflect, Revere, and Ruminate at an Icon once (each) per game day per Giant; if you have Reflected at an Icon of Tii, you will not be able to do so at another Icon until the start of the next day, although you could still Reflect and Ruminate.

If you place the icon in your house or on your Home Street, only you can pick up the icon, but if placed in a public area, it can be picked up by anyone.

Transmissions

These aren't really conversations since the icons don't seem to notice your responses. They seem to be recorded transmissions from previous ages.

Rituals of the Giants

Spriggan

Icon of Spriggan: All rise. ALL RISE, for the daily recitation of the pledge to Spriggan.
You: I'm risen, but...
Icon: We earnest tree-huggers and loyal supplicants to Spriggan pledge allegiance to the All-Powerful Giant of Trees.
You: Look, I'm not sure...
Icon: We swear to pet, not poison, water, not weedkill, and never to go against the grain when we know the grain is good.
You: I'm not really a Spriggot, tbh.
Icon: We will cherish our wood, and love our logs, and never take a hatchet to a dying friend, for every tree is our friend.
You: Oh come ON...
Icon: ...nd above all, deny our loyalty to any giant but Spriggan.
You: I'm sorry, I can't.
Icon: In this, the age of Spriggan.
You: But, but - it's not. When is this from?

Icon: It is for this reason that, in the time of the great imagining, Humbaba carefully mind-crafted every animal to be special and different and unique. Both the species already hatched, and the species waiting in the future-worlds, waiting to hatch.
You: Huh?
Icon: Transmission...
You: Wait, what?
Icon: ... ends. Click.
You: Gah.
