Scold’s Bridle: Is your muse a gossip? Do they nag? Lie? Slander?
Both muses have a similar policy on lying and gossip, which is “*shrug* whatever works!“
As far as I can tell, Melkor actually invented the art of lying; the spreading of false rumors has been a valuable tool in the dark lords’ arsenals ever since.
Never use a hammer when a bit of gossip about treachery or dead wives will do.
(As for nagging: the closest Sauron comes is to cough politely and drop repeated and increasingly frantic reminders to his boss, because Melkor’s brain is an enormous sieve, while Melkor is definitely the more likely party to be found in the back seat, kicking the driver and yodeling “I’M BORED ARE WE THERE YET I’M HUNGRY”)
