Just pick whichever one you like the sound of, I'll work out the deets over sunday.
Holdna’s Consort

Granesh’s Folly
Hunger of the Fallen

C'mon guys you've voted for the worst one!! I get it that Family Gathering is funny but Granesh's Folly is right there! It not only is a subtle nod towards the Deceivers that were murdered, BUT IT EVEN SHITS TALKS A LITERAL GOD

I think "legend in the making" on a growth set would be an awesome name, as a (probably to late) entry
Gaunt
Im in the lead! I am so glad yall liked my suggestion.
Doctor Zero
Holdna's Consort is by far the best name. Everyone here is crazy.
Mani
feel like the axe itself might be the consort, while the whole set works really well with family gathering

The Family Gathering is winning? Hmm. Got to be about summoning the dead or copying the abilities of his dead siblings or family. Truly to make him have the perfect abilities for any situation.

I love family gathering. William Oh is making legendary gear out of the remains of his systematically genocided serpentine relatives. This super gear will be immediately used to wreck Graneshians shit which really lends a hungry ghost/revenge for the slain angle to the name
SunderGoldmane
I vote Herald of (something something)
Notcreepycreeper
The Family Gathering. But its affects are still all about genociding Grenesh followers. Bc thats what family is for!
Dash of Salt
Same

It doesn't make any sense. Aren't they, at best, half-cousins? Probably not even that. Sure, they might be relatives, but certainly not family.

Family gathering is the most humorous, but coilbreaker is the coolest and most prophetic - since Will will conquer the tower and this break the cool of Ouroborus that formed the tower.
Ford-Thomas Frank Loveland
Damn, that's my least favorite too
Shyt
Dammit I hate family’s gathering 😭😭 and that’s the one with most votes
Fiddle
Id pick reliquary and i have absolutley no bias....
Emily Gurnavage
I can get behind that. I did list it as my 2nd choice. You do have me more on the fence now though. Personally I think Granesh is more than just a single arc though and will be a reoccurring conflict, but I obviously can't say for sure.
Imagine Baggins
The Family Gathering + Hunger of the Fallen, could be Hunger of the Family
Ethan Barrow
I really like the 4th and 5th options personally.
Nate Hada
Fallen in the second case would mean ‘descended from the tower yet to return’ in the same ways as fallen from grace as all deceivers originate (as in heritage not physically)(although I could see Jason telling a tale of Will being born far above where mortal men can walk) from high in the tower.
Nate Hada
I like hunger of the fallen, I feel like it incorporates both the burden of the deceivers killed by the church as well as the desire for Will (and all the fallen deceivers) to reclaim his birthright as a denizen of the higher floors.

I feel like Granesh's Folly better suits the entire charade of Church V William and will be something people refer to by name when they think about what fuelled a part of his meteoric rise. But the story isn't about Granesh, they're just an arc in the many arcs of William climbing the tower. The name should be about Will, who he is and where he will go, and considering the man grew up in an orphanage and has never met his parents, The Family Gathering feels like his first true step towards figuring out who he is and how he came to be, especially as a climax macronomicon has been building towards for the last couple dozen chapters.

Split between The Family Gathering, Coil Breaker and Hunger of the Fallen 🥲

Split between coilbreaker and family gathering. Coilbreaker is bad ass but family gathering is pretty funny
Dreamrambler
I totally agree about granesh's folly, came to say exactly that.
Emily Gurnavage
I voted for Granesh's Folly. Coilbreaker seems a bit too on the nose. Holdna's Consort is much more of a title and less a set name to me. I was actually confused for a sec what we were naming with that being the first option lol. The Family Gathering is funny and I suppose totally on-brand for your works and the tone of the story, but idk about it being the name of the set Will should be keeping the entire rest of the story it seems like. I suppose it wouldn't be bad as my 2nd choice though. Ashen Reliquary isn't bad, I can't even quite put my finger on why I don't like the feel as much. Decent choice I suppose. Might be the skill/bonus/effect implications. Hunger of the Fallen only feels right if the set actually incorporates that hunger somehow in its effects and bonuses etc. Its too descriptive for the set not to revolve around the name. Granesh's Folly however... the set will only exist because of that Church's poor choices. Will only continues to live because of their failures. And Will plans to be their downfall, and depending on how far the story goes perhaps even the downfall of Granesh Himself. If this set will follow Will all the way to the top like it seems it will from all the setup, this name just feels perfect.

I think Family Reunion or Deceivers Reunion sounds better.
Connor Rodriguez
Family gathering is right in line with how much everyone has been underestimating William
Ford-Thomas Frank Loveland
Hunger of the fallen is good too
Ford-Thomas Frank Loveland
Inpersonally like Ashen Reliquary for the accuracy, and Granesh's follow for the irony
Matt Hazel
Family gathering is both hilarious and most apt. I went for Folly because it gives me smug glee.... no idea why people are going Coilbreaker as it seemingly makes little sense.
Baines
ah oh we have a tie
Dlandis
Cool breaker with family gathering right behind in my opinion they are both fitting.
Jacob Goodrich
Hunger of the fallen as it won't let me pick on the poll
Moon Winchester
Family gathering sounds so much like a William Oh type name
