first its candy, then its gum, then its bad, then its gone.
right now, its candy. its good, Midas feels good, its different but it feels good. everything is more colorful, more tasteful. sweeter. nicer.
then, its gonna be gum. the middle point. still sweet, just... something is missing. something changed, something is different, but in the wrong way. they could try to add more candy, but itll always become gum.
then its bad. the bubble bursts. the magic is gone. the sweetness disappears, replaced by a bad taste that lingers in Midas.
and then its gone. its gone completly, the aftertaste gone, leaving an empty husk of the god. or maybe freeing them from the weird mania for the better. or maybe both
