The stick wasn't doing it. What was there besides the stick? Right, a carrot. Enforcers worked for the Master of Sin (and by extension, me) because he fed them and hosted them and cared for the comfort of their living, so they didn't have to.

Even the existence of it was such an abstract concept for the quartet that they had a hard time truly believing in it.
