Re: Why doesn’t the Master of the Graveyard eat him?

Your 3 answer may be most correct. The Master of the Graveyard is obsessed with eating people, but she specifically eats human trespassers to her graveyard—that is why she is so willing to eat Gammon, because he was an enemy (and is even now hiding something) and might be tasty.

GEAR is not a trespasser, so his death would not be sanctioned by anyone else in the Theater (I wouldn’t say being powerless makes him a burden; he can still take care of the Clocktower, which was his original function anyway.) He is also not human, as far as we understand it, so whatever he is could be completely unappetizing to her.
