In the Aegis and Edie sandbox, Aegis stopped by the Belltower and updated the book. Shouldn't there have been some hexes waiting in case any insufficiently superpowered Bells find Milliways? That seems like an important thing to have there. Or possibly in some second room available only to Bells, since I don't remember who all gets Belltower keys.

OK, I'm being inordinately amused by the EVE sandbox (I played, on and off, for years) but I have to ask: does EVE's weird video game space-is-made-of-Jell-O rule apply here?

Aegis comments on that here; I don't recall offhand if this is congruent with Effulgence canon but it's apparently the case for this sandbox.

Perhaps, if hexagons are too much power to leave lying around, they could try putting out a party bowl of triangles or squares.

This would not have made Aegis a mint though.

And as Juliet learned, a square is enough to commit murder.

That matches Effulgence; they never left coins in the Belltower.

A square is enough to destroy the planet. Just ask Cam how dangerous “conjure stuff” can be.

how it can destroy a planet?

Also, I do think there are ways to be smart creative about it even without offering minting. They could set up a number of "devices" made through wishcoins, like the basic equipment for Mars residences. A healing device, something to conjure food, something to conjure anything that isn't a weapon could help anybell considerably.
Sorry for my bad english

Okay, but when Cam talks about destroying planets he talks about things like black holes. A square can conjure a limited amount of stuff.

If you conjured a square's worth of black hole while standing on the surface of a planet, I would not swear to the planet's safety after that.
