the king carries the story and the story carries the culture. "trickle-down" economics maintains the existing story (which has become the status quo b/c it's a local maximum)

the king HAS to move the story forward otherwise by definition the story has ended. without a story the culture survives via a new story, but the old story DIES. depending on how centralized the story was, this can have minor to massively destructive effects.

a story that is "too big to fail" is a fat king story. yet rather than decentralize the culture this creates a backstabbing political court as all efforts are tinged with the desire to replace the king. the stagnating story is seen correctly as a problem to be fixed.

yet when the story revolves around the story of who gets to tell the story... then there isn't a story being told. or, to be more precise there IS. it's just not about the mundane hooman things. death to hoomans!
