[QUOTE="aco175, post: 8826414, member: 27385"] I could see the political ambitions of several houses not aligning with a golem. Hate is certainly stirred with rumors of mom-humans, non-caring, non-whatever that needs to be said to get the people thinking the golem is not with them. The golem is not in the bloodline- it is only a servant and do we want a servant on the throne. We need new blood on the throne for the new times. All the current political rhetoric will fit. There can also be some wishing to keep the golem in power. Perhaps the slow, logical, thoughts of the golem have kept the kingdom safe and prosperous. Another idea is that over time the golem will attract a cult of its own and be worshiped. Perhaps a splinter cult of a god of time or metal. People having spend several generations under its rule may see it as inevitable. I think the infighting and will to overthrow it would have happened very early in its rule though. But, maybe it had and the golem defeated the usurpers. [/QUOTE]
