I think it makes more sense for Maryev to be all "y'all suck" at this junction and go off in search of somebody who wants to actually pay him for work. I have a secondary character in mind, which I think FM was all "Yup, go forth and conquer." So I'll get final verification on that, and we'll save Maryev for down the road when the story's progressed a bit and he might have realized there's something to this whole world ending bit.
