#except with a bunch of even goofier henchmen

[bugs-in-situations]

We have been meaning to ask you Evprim Things actually it's just about Maki and Kina (<predictable). We wish to know about their Situation we want to know Motives and things we wish to know what their hopes for their Desert Bandit Group are and what pushed them to Do That (if you. have that on hand)

their motivation was pretty close to canon astotheles, they wanted to start their own country but the ant queen said no so they ran off to Fog World and started living in caves. normal things to spend an afternoon doing with your sibling

the forsaken lands are a bit more industrialized due to the termites not being isolationist anymore so the mandits (mantis bandits) operate a lot on stealing parts of machinery and repurposing them. their machines aren't very good though and tend to break after one use due to always being held together with bug duct tape and prayers and usually missing some essential parts they couldn't scavenge for

maki considers himself the captain of the crew and kina the first mate. kina considers herself the captain and maki the first mate. they still have a more stable relationship than their canon selves and suffer from the "maki thinks he can do everything alone" issue less

also, there has been an incident where they tried to enter the forsaken castle, got chased out by specters, and decided to break the castle key in half which is why it's in two pieces (see: the heaven and earth keys). and then they lost one of the pieces. good job guys
