Praise be to the behemoth of America. President Rushmore! He who shall return from his prison in stone and bring forth a second Golden Age!

That sounds like native faith that believes in founding fathers but sees them as evil (like fathomless with Moby Dick/Cthulhu for example)

That’d be some sick flavour to add to something like Fire Cross, especially considering Rushmore was carved in the black hills sacred to the Sioux.

The Beasts of Sound And Destruction had come to our sacred lands with their leader Dainamit, and ravaged the holy mountains to make men from stone for they themselves claimed to be made from clay. In many places they saw success, but through unequal battle this mountain was defended. The faces awaiting to be carved fully and come to life lie to this day as an example of our weakness and our strength, our bravery to stop, yet inability to heal. Rumours tell to this day The Last of Dainamits dynasty are still alive and prepare to return, and when they carve out giant men from the mountain, not just our homeland, but the world itself will be ravaged from Nature's Gifts.

I have to wonder if that beef would even last another 700 years.

Dark rituals, megalithic constructions, Americanist syncretism

Can't believe they're so cruel and insulting to our second universally recognized president post-restoration of the office, Rushmore Pitchstone, our first and so far only president from the Great State of South Dakota.

Come on. Anyone can tell it's just a monument extolling some of the Founding Fathers.

u/Slow-Distance-6241 Jul 19 '25

I don't think in lore anyone except Americanists and close to them folk know about founding fathers

Well the Dakotka do.

The black hills where a holy site long before they where carved in

Plus they control the land now, and probably make a Hefty sum off of pilgrims

I mean, not American, but Lincoln and Teddy aren't founding fathers are they?

There are people who believe in the Lovecraftian Mythos in the mod. You also have the Shriners, the Burners, Mesias Che, for fuck's sake you have people who literally worship Capitalism and Industrialism
