The worm that King Solomon used to build the temple is fractional reserve banking. It’s a vortex that pulls energy and attention from the future. It's a delightful inversion of energy when the interest you earn from lending money to your enemies pays for the instruments of their execution.

Vortexes are very powerful when they occur as natural phenomenon and they are a very good locus of attention for magical workings.

That’s why one of the symbols of the cult is a swirl. It’s a vortex. Some magically inclined folk use this symbol as a focus point to attack with their psychic energy. It’s quite simple to capture this energy, focus it and send it right back at its point of origin. Chances are everything you need to conduct such a magical working are within arm’s reach.
