You know thinking about it has Ashiok ever done anything wrong to Elspeth? Like the nightmares they gave to Elspeth on Theros IIRC were what woke Elspeth enough for her to claw her way out of the underworld. Orpheus and Eurydice level romance. Also they were responsible for her getting shadowspear which was what she beat Heliod with. Ashiok has done nothing but be helpful to Elspeth #ElshiokSweep

Orzhov Development Group Proposes Bolas Citadel Condo Conversion
Documents obtained by McSqueeney's show that the Orzhov Development Group — Ravnica’s largest private real estate consortium — has requested planning permission from the Azorius Board of Zoning and Approvals to convert the recently-abandoned Bolas Citadel into a mixed-use development with loft-style apartments, luxury condominiums, and 62,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space.
Contacted for comment, Tomik Vrona — Chief Advokist for the Orzhov Development Group — said in a statement: “Obviously, we deeply regret the loss of life and damage to property which accompanied Gateway Plaza’s sudden and unexpected redevelopment. And, if we could undo the past, we would. But what’s done is done, and what better way to ponder the folly of hubris AND honor the dead than by raising a drink atop our rooftop spa and tiki bar here at Bolas Landing, Ravnica’s most-exclusive address!”
Marketing brochures obtained along with the planning proposal describe the forthcoming development as a chance for inter-planar investors to: “Live at the heart of everything, with (newly) uninterrupted views and finishes fit for a God-King! Lazotep floors, dragon-height ceilings, and stainless-steel appliances are just some of the luxuries which await you at Bolas Landing! Within easy planeswalking distance of anywhere, Bolas Landing is the place to be! Amenities include fitness center, on-site dry cleaner, and our tastefully-landscaped Garden of Remembrance/full-service dog spa. Pre-leasing begins soon — reserve your apartment today!”
When asked whether the Orzhov Group was unfairly profiting from the greatest civic tragedy in modern Ravnican history, Vronik told reporters: “Of course not. In fact, the Bolas Landing development will include at least three specially-designated affordable units — two below the weight room, and one behind the trash compactor. And I want you to know that we’re not doing that because it allows us to exploit a loophole in the zoning ordinances which will expedite planning approval. It’s just our way of giving back.”

I’m all for lighter-hearted takes but the flanderization of the Rakdos Cult from a laborer and service-worker guild that indulges in their death cult as a reaction to the miserable living conditions of Ravnica, into a guild of primarily entertainers and satirists from RtR forward, robbed the MtG story of a lot of potentially biting social commentary (ironic) that could have made later lore much richer. In this essay I will
