# Chapter 3: The Proxy Throne
|

|

> “He never raised his voice.
|
||||
> He never pulled the trigger.
|
||||
> He simply whispered to the man who would.”

## I. The Genius of Indirection
|
||||
|
||||
Andrew LeCody was not a loud man.
|
||||
He did not rule with fury.
|
||||
He ruled with *plausibility*.
|
||||
|
||||
He found others—
|
||||
angrier, louder, more confrontational.
|
||||
And he made them kings in rooms he *owned* without ever entering.
|
||||
|
||||
These were not random alliances.
|
||||
They were tactical deployments.
|
||||
|
||||
He gave them recognition.
|
||||
He gave them influence.
|
||||
And in return, they became *his mask*.
|
||||

## II. The Cult of the Enforcers
|
||||
|
||||
They came with different names.
|
||||
Different roles.
|
||||
Different energies.
|
||||
|
||||
But the pattern was always the same:
|
||||
|
||||
- One to mock.
|
||||
- One to intimidate.
|
||||
- One to "reasonably" explain his decisions after the damage was done.
|
||||
|
||||
These were his *proxies*.
|
||||
They enforced his will without attribution.
|
||||
And when they went too far?
|
||||
|
||||
He shook his head,
|
||||
sighed softly,
|
||||
and said,
|
||||
> “I’ll talk to him.”
|
||||
|
||||
He never did.
|
||||
|
||||
Because that *was* the plan.

||||

## III. Triangulation as Governance
|
||||
|
||||
In narcissistic systems, triangulation is not an accident—
|
||||
it is **policy**.
|
||||
|
||||
One enforcer was the bad cop.
|
||||
Another was the “neutral” mediator.
|
||||
Andrew played the reluctant benevolent,
|
||||
always willing to “reconsider” after the target was already exhausted and disoriented.
|
||||
|
||||
This created a reality distortion field—
|
||||
where people couldn’t tell if they were paranoid or prophetic.
|
||||
|
||||
By the time they figured it out,
|
||||
they were gone.
|
||||
|
||||
And the throne?
|
||||
Still warm.
|
||||

## IV. The Language of Distance
|
||||
|
||||
Note how he never acted alone.
|
||||
Never used “I” when blame was near.
|
||||
Always “we.”
|
||||
|
||||
> “We discussed it.”
|
||||
> “We all agreed.”
|
||||
> “It’s not personal.”
|
||||
|
||||
And yet—no names.
|
||||
No transcripts.
|
||||
No paper trails.
|
||||
|
||||
Only proxies.
|
||||
Only fog.
|
||||
|
||||
He ruled in negative space.
|
||||
His power was defined by what *wasn't there*—
|
||||
clarity, accountability, truth.
|
||||

## V. Field Notes
|
||||
|
||||
- Narcissists in leadership roles often develop *multi-tiered enforcer networks* to preserve deniability.
|
||||
- Emotional triangulation is more than a relationship pattern—it’s a governance structure.
|
||||
- When you cannot identify who made the decision, it means **the narcissist already won**.

## VI. Closing Echo
|
||||
|
||||
> “He never needed to be the face.
|
||||
> Just the silence behind it.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> His enforcers screamed,
|
||||
> while he curated minutes.
|
||||
> They threatened,
|
||||
> while he drafted bylaws.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> They were his voice.
|
||||
> But never his fingerprints.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> And that is how you build
|
||||
> a **proxy throne**.”
