The Last Toa

I have a not-quite-100% finished thought rolling around my head about the legacy of the Toa Metru, and in attempt to get it complete, I'm trying to write it down.

So, the Toa Metru are the final stop in a line of Toa going back to the foundation of Metru Nui, right? They were made Toa by Lhikan, the last of the Toa Mangai, and as his heirs and mentees, they are the last Toa of Metru Nui.

Indeed, the GSR generally, they come awfully close to being the last Toa--period. Not the last Toa in existence, obviously, but the Mata/Nuva, Takanuva, and the Inika/Mahri are all Toa in some other special way: Artahka originals, the Mask of Light, and intervention by the Red Star. None of them represent the passage of energy from Toa to Stone to Matoran: that lineage, which I assume goes back all the way to the earliest days of the GSR.

I think Krakua is the only real monkey-wrench in the idea that the Metru were the last Toa made in the conventional way. I'm pretty sure he's the only non-Inika example we know of in canon definitely after the Cataclysm.

There's something wistfully sad about the Metru being the Last Toa Ever™ and yielding their own Toa power to revive the Matoran, with no new Toa to follow them. When the Toa Mata arrive on Mata Nui, it becomes something like an Arthurian return, but it's also a supplanting: "the line of Dume and Lhikan and those even before them has failed" and a better thing takes their place.

Some basic Googling/BioSector01ing seems to suggest that there's not a lot of canonical detail in HOW Krakua becomes a Toa--so even if we accept that he's a fairly recent Toa, we can allow ourselves some speculation that he ALSO might not have been an old-school Toa-Stone-made Toa.

Why does any of this matter--other than poignancy, which is a consideration of its own? Well, I was thinking about Matoro (as one does) and the unique way in which he could carry on the legacy of the Toa Metru: he's the one Matoran (and thus the one transformed Toa) who knows their tale before the reveal at the end of MoL. Alone of the amnesiac Matoran, he has knowledge--though not memory--of Metru Nui, and while he kept the Turagas' secrets, he can't have helped being shaped by them in the 1000 years of doing so.

Destiny is the will of Mata Nui (well, destiny is a thorny subject, but let's call it that here). The Toa Mata, Takanuva, Krakua--what if they were all attempts in some way or other to supply the "needed" Toa to save the Great Spirit? But, though he is dying, the Great Spirit doesn't want any of these: he doesn't want to saved by Artahka's demiurgic Toa, or the Avokhii-wearing saviour, or any of the washed-up leftovers (Lesovikk, "the forty living Toa," the Hagah): instead, when the Red Star intervenes--the Red Star that echoes his will in a way the Order of Mata Nui can never hope to--he chooses one of them, and he chooses the one of their number who is the truest heir of the Toa Metru--his Toa.

Destiny is a big theme of the Metru in a way that was never true of the Mata (unity is their theme), and this really comes to the fore with the dancing back and forth between who was destined: them or the Mask Matoran. Destiny also comes up big with Matoro--and perhaps their destinies are the same.

#And now I'm headcanoning that Krakua was “made” a Toa somewhat dubiously: that Helryx found some long-lost Toa stone or Artahka intervened.#That he was a sacrificial lamb “just in case” because they knew one was needed but they thought the lineage had died out.#But Mata Nui wasn't relying on them--the Red Star had him covered.#Bionicle #Matoro #Mata Nui #not-quite-coherent musings

I am very intrigued by how the "Toa Tool" thing works.

Like, yeah, some are made by Arthaka or other famous universe toolsmiths, but for many matoran-turned-toa, their tools are often related to their professions or straight up are tools they had in hand that are transformed alongside them during the metamorphosis.

Vakama was a mask carver, carving masks from kanoka disks, and his tool turned out to be a launcher that could use the raw materials of his profession as projectiles (well, not a hard thing considering they already are used as projectiles by many, but still...).

Takua's Chronicler staff became Takanuva's Staff of light, a powerful weapon that, coincidentally, could also function as a rather deadly version of a Kohili Stick.

These items also seem to be strongly tied with their own wielder physical being, as the toa Hagah weapons were transformed along their users, but despite this, they can also be left behind for the sake of better equipment (Mahri Kongu) which, although understandable in some cases (Two hands), still feels weird. That's not just a weapon, that's a part of you.

Its such an interesting concept that seems so often discarded in favour of elemental powers and mask, but like... Its YOUR weapon. It is related to a matoran entire being, their life, their experiences and things they enjoy. It's a way to use one's passion in a way that lets them protect others, and often also have additional functions based on what they may need. How cool is that? Think about it.

There could be a toa of ice whose job as a matoran was janitor and their weapon is a mop that can freeze its tendrils and become a morningstar, or generate a frozen layer over what its passed over, painting ice paths in an instant.

There could be a toa of air who had a passion for botany and took care of the MU version of bonsai trees, their precision shears turned into a huge, bulky pair of scissors that can be used as a broadsword that can also manipulate air currents to cut things from distance.

There could be a toa of iron whose main job was welding, and lo and behold, the clunky, cumbersome equipment he struggled to drag around became a big flamethrower that it wears like a backpack, complete with a welding mask integrated on top of their own kanohi as a visor.

There could be a Toa of stone who enjoyed the life of a performer, juggling, somersaulting, doing precision throws and whose tool is now a set of spiky or bladed clubs that can bounce on surfaces and enemies alike and then return to them.

A toa of Psionics whose dream to write stories manifested into a strange staff, originally their writing stylus, able to manifest masterful illusions by writing words inside the enemy minds and trap them in stories through the mere strength of their narration.

#bionicle #crab says stuff #idk there is a LOT to think about this concept #it has incredible creative potential #its a shame we only had mostly standard ``cool`` weapons.#we did have some notorious exception #Krakua sound staff for example was interesting #and who can forget Pohatu steel kicks #but #what about a TOA OF FIST? what about TOA OF WRENCH? what about a TOA OF ROLLERSKATES? what about a TOA OF FISHING POLE?#endless possibilities

Headcanon: Whenever someone annoys Toa Krakua, he makes them sound like they inhaled helium or sulfur hexafluoride.

Thing about me is that I'm a huge softie. I want everybody to get happy endings and be alright in the end. And that's great for fluffy headcanons. But when I actually buckle down and think about my ideas for how things would go post-canon, it's a little rough. Because the point of Marendar is to kill Toa, and to have it show up and be defeated or change sides or what have you before doing any Toa-killing would just be a cop-out (especially after 10+ years of irl buildup). So that means some Toa gotta die. But who?

On that note, here's a potentially gruesome poll. Pick whichever option you think should happen most, and add anyone else you think should bite it in the tags.

Would have added options for surviving, non-zombified Toa from the Red Star, and Nobody <3, but alas, ran out of room. Also, Krakua isn't here because he has to survive to do the whole "lone guardian of an island fortress" thing and send Vakama that Kratana-induced vision he got back in Time Trap. So his survival is guaranteed. Everyone else, not so much.

Some anti-propaganda (reasons they all should die *evil laugh*) below the cut:

Toa Nuva: Would there be a bigger gutpunch than this? The flagship characters, the six heroes with one destiny! But that destiny is complete now, they don't need to be kept alive anymore. Imagine how much it would shake things up to take them off the board, how ruined the survivors would be if only a few of them went down. Wouldn't it just be so juicy?

Toa Mahri: They're one down already, so it's not like you'd be breaking up a complete set. Besides, we all know they're built for tragedy at this point. Jaller and Hahli could fall together. Hewkii could go down in front of Macku's eyes. Nuparu could sacrifice himself using one last invention to stop Marendar, perhaps making up for the perceived sins of the Vahki and Boxor. Kongu could accept death as it takes him, at least now he might see Matoro again.

Toa Hagah: These six are prime candidates, aren't they? Important enough for it to hurt, for us to care, but not so important that they aren't expendable. Never truly frontrunners. Named characters it's safe to kill. What more could you ask for? I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out Greg had planned to kill them so he'd never have to describe Gaaki, Bomonga, Pouks, and Kualus' appearances. Plus, Norik dying just after getting to see Varian again? Or even just before? Doesn't it hurt so good?

Takanuva: He only needs to live long enough to end the civil war between the Great Beings, but after that, if Marendar is still in play, he's fair game. What do you say? It would torture him more to see his friends fall while he lived on, but there is something poetic to "Takanuva, the first and greatest Toa of Light, whose life burned brightly, but quickly."

Yesterday Questers: These three are like the Toa Hagah, but even safer. Named characters, important enough for their deaths to matter, but brand new, without much audience investment. Besides, they're asking for it, aren't they? Ancient Orde, the chip on his shoulder as old as he is, could finally know peace in oblivion. Perhaps Zaria's death would finally clear his guilty conscience. And Chiara... Does anyone actually like Chiara? Would anyone miss her? Are these questions she asks herself? And wouldn't it hurt to hear her ask them in her final moments?

Varian: Talk about tragedy. Thousands of years, locked in a tube, dead to the world. Unaware time is even passing. And when she finally awakes, it's only to die. A waste of her character, perhaps, but if you don't mind fridging, it would piss off Norik somethin' fierce.

Tuyet: Doesn't she deserve it? And you know, Marendar does track Toa Power, and there's no greater source of that than Tuyet and the Nui Stone. It would be gunning for her. And it would be so deliciously ironic. All that power, all the effort she put in to get it, and it would be utterly useless to save her in the end. Her dreams of empire ground to dust in seconds, right before her eyes, as Toa Tuyet dies one last time.

Helryx: Think of the poetry. Marendar, the Toa's bane. What more worthy opponent could there be for the first Toa's last stand? It practically writes itself. Helryx has done her duty. The will of Mata Nui has been carried out. This is her perfect chance to go down fighting on her own terms, not as the leader of the Order, but as a Toa once more.

Lesovikk: This guy is Orde and Zaria but worse. He wants death so bad. And what else is there left for him to do? Karzahni is dead. His Matoran are found. What, will he become a Turaga and gift his power to the next generation of Toa? Will he wander the woods and care for the animals? Will he find joy and beauty in living? Lame. He misses his team so bad? Let him join them.

20-odd nameless mooks: By far the safest option. A Toa-killer would be pretty pointless if it never killed any Toa, but nobody said it had to be anyone we cared about, right? This is the best of both worlds. A pile of bodies to make Marendar a credible threat, but nothing and no one of consequence lost. A perfect solution, right? Just uh. Hope you don't have any OCs in here.

Mutants: The Dark Hunters are scattered, vulnerable. If these lost souls haven't found the greater group yet, they'd be easy to pick off. Good options too, right? Actual characters, so their deaths have some weight, but not major ones, so they won't be missed. Guardian was killed off in Reign of Shadows for those exact reasons. Why not have Savage, Spinner, and Prototype carry on the tradition, and tie off some loose ends in the process?

Shadow Takanuva: Sure, it might suck for their home universes to lose their Takanuva like this, but hey. If you have a whole army just sitting around, might as well put them to use, right? The fight could be interesting to watch too. Shadow might be the only element Marendar has no countermeasures for, since Toa of Shadow were never meant to exist. Maybe this is how it's finally beaten, after taking several alternate Takanuva down with it, of course. Besides, Melding Teridax flattened several of them already, so it's not like they were all making it home to begin with.

#bionicle #bonkle #bonkles #marendar #toa #this was originally a much longer and more serious thinkpiece #about the pros and cons of killing off each of them #but indulging the evil writer in me like this was much more fun #choosing violence today #yay :)#plus a poll opens up more opportunities for discussion

Hi! Sorry if this is a weird question, and I don't know if you already answered this or not, why do you ship Vakama and Krakua? Nothing wrong with it, I'm just curious

It's a complicated question revealed in my own interpretations of subtext and unhinged queerness of my existence during the reread of Time Trap (Bionicle Legends #10 novel iirc)

Due to my own headcanons about both Krakua and Vakama (as well as trivia and other roles and upbringing of his voice actor Alessandro Juliani), they mesh well with each other, adding the overall belligerent sexual and homoerotic tension of the Time Trap as a whole, and it makes my stupid brain release good chemicals picturing them together as either during the times when Vakama was still a Toa, or long after the events as they meet during the Destiny War, with Vakama already a Turaga.

There's something endlessly captivating in seeing a doomed hero stuck in an illusion being visited by his lover from the distant future to break him out of the trap.

Without going too hard into all the intricate headcanons and AUs i have cooking rotten in my brain, that's about it.

THE YESTERDAY QUEST (band) LINE-UP LETS GOOO

ever since i described the hellish possibility of a lesovikk-varian-chiara-zariah-orde-krakua (+ gelu) toa team as an emo band the thought "ok but what if they WERE a band" has plagued my thoughts and hands, so here they are!! in human form bc ive just discovered anatomy and i cant do proper bionicles yet. i dont trust myself

i also have like. Lore about them. sort of. also pls help i need to figure out their clothes

Lesovikk (guitar) looks like he crawled out of a dumpster at all times but he does actually have a place to stay, he's just Not Doing Good. He can shred the angriest riffs you've ever heard but at heart he's a melancholy boy forced (by himself) to be Fucking Mad. Leader on the sole basis that the others would be worse. Usually cranky but turns into a bashful sunshine the second his friends Idris and Sarda show up, and it's super weird for everybody else to see him like that

Chiara (bass) is an old school punk who has bitten at least three people this month and fistfights Orde daily. They met at a concert while she was trying to swoon his sister and he kicked her in the knee. Fixes up the instruments constantly because their hq is a humid basement that messes the wires and stuff all the time. Most competent musically but hellish at human relations

Orde (keyboard/keytar/guitar) swears he had a psychic experience at a rave because the music was just So Good. The only ones backing him up are a bunch of guys who claim he brain blasted them during it and hate him. Cyberpunk guy. The band is named after a 26-books-long mystery-horror-sci-fi-psychological series he failed to write and Chiara will tell EVERYBODY about it much to his hatred

Zariah (drummer) hit a growth spurt at 13 and the rest of his body is still trying to catch up to it. Heavy metal goth who funds the band via his job as an ironmonger and metallurgist. No clue what he or the others are doing, he's just here to beat the shit out of the drums. Despite looking Not Approachable when people want to talk to the band they go to him because he's the least off the shits

Gelu is technically part of the band in that he drives them to places because none of them have a license or a car. His own car is a mad max death trap he built himself in his old days as a member of a fairly peaceful motor gang. Sometimes he still dresses up in "uniform". Universally beloved by the members of the band. Actually likes hanging out at their gigs to watch them perform. Also helps Lesovikk via therapeutic make out sessions (they're not together)

Krakua (vocalist) can fit so much volume in him. He needs to stand six feet away from the mic or he'll blow it up. Every single time he pulls out the heavy metal growl the audience is Blown Away. Scene kiddo, youngest here. His hair is Like That because it used to be shaved and he's growing it out. MIGHT have been in a cult but nobody is sure, it remains that he lives with Zariah for now

Varian sings with them sometimes but isn't a stable member of the band. She and Orde are siblings and he loves her very much but is too angry to express it normally. Goth who hangs with a bunch of normal people and her friend Norik who might have a crush on her which is why the rest get roped into going to concerts of her older loser brother's screamo cover band

#bionicle #humanized bionicle #lesovikk #chiara #orde #zariah #gelu #krakua #varian #random draws #if anybody knows Clothes. pls. help

I balme and thank @demitsorou for the brain rot I got over these two /hj

I already made a post about how I’m thinking about Bionicle, and this is one of them:

Vakama and Krakua

⬇️Thoughts and ramblings below the cut⬇️

Just for the sake of fun and games, this would more or less occur during the Metru Nui Arc. Krakua is already a Toa, has been for a while now, and is in Metru Nui because he heard that the Kanohi Vahi would be around, having heard around the Order and been chosen because he can be discrete and quick, which he'll need to ve because there are a lot of Vahki around, Teridax is hiding somewhere, and there are Dark Hunters. Also for fun and games, Takua and Jaller will be somewhat present, so yahoo

There are MANY ways that Krakua meets Vakama and the Toa Metru. One way they meet is Krakua saves Vakama when Vakama is sneaking into Ta-Metru and is nearly caught by Vahki. Another way is the Toa regathering at the Great Temple and are surprised to see who they at first think is Toa Lhikan, but then he speaks and it's Krakua. Another is Krakua saves the Toa from being captured by Visorak, which is totally not recycled from that one two-part post I made with Ackar

The Toa have their reactions. Nokama is alert and intrigued, Nuju is hella guarded, Whenua is VERY intrigued, Onewa is annoyed to be dealing with some new Toa he's never heard of, and Matau is both happy to meet a possible new friend, but also a little jealous and annoyed to meet someone who's literally a badass and shows him up in a lot of ways, especially with that pretty, shiny armor he has

Vakama's reaction is a mixed bag, and he feels a lot of things at once. Hope that Lhikan wasn't the last Toa, and that the team has someone who can show them the ropes, some anxiety and A LOT of insecurity because the new guy is VERY good at what he does and might as well be someone Lhikan had saved as a last resort thatno one else knew about, some fascination because the stranger is confident and has very lovely armor and the Mask-maker in Vakama is wondering who made the mask and armor and how both got so pristine and sleek, and finally some, "Oh, no, he's hot," when Krakua actually turns his attention to Vakama to get some answers on who the team is

That's another thing: Krakua has questions and would like answers and would rather not beat the Toa for it because he'd rather be allies than enemies. The Toa are divided on whether or not they really should trust the new guy, but Vakama is dead quiet, unable to focus because Krakua, unlike the other Toa that have huddles together and are very stand-offish towards him(Krakua), stands aside and admires the Great Temple, maybe even keeps the Matoran in one place by simply tapping his weapon against the ground or even hums quietly as he meanders. He's also very soft spoken, never raising his voice higher than a murmur, at most. The other Toa are trying to vote, but they can get a solid vote because Vakama's enthralled with the new Toa. They ultimately decide to let Krakua join, seeing as how they could use his guidance and he's the only thing their possible new leader can focus on

Somewhere along the journey with Krakua, Takau and Jaller see that Vakama is VERY distracted and while neither can blame him, they also know what's up and Takua tries to be little wingman and make Vakama sound as impressive as possible to Krakua, who's amused by Vakama's friends and Takua's enthusiasm, even if he notices something off about Takua, i.e. his name, low tolerance for heat, and even how he doesn't know much of his past. Jaller takes care of that by "accidentally" making Vakama trip and fall down with and on Krakua. And Krakua does not take that well when he instinctively throws and pins Vakama to the wall, thinking he was about to be attacked. It's pure instict from training and experience, but Krakua still tells Vakama, Takua, and Jaller to be careful

Is this ship one-sided? At first it is, but then Krakua begins to catch on that there's more to Vakama than he thinks. His guard is up because he hasn't got a lot of experience trusting people, Ta-Matoran/Toa no less, because of his past and because of being in the Order of Mata Nui, but that guard lowers as Vakama, unlike the other Toa, isn't very loud(by Krakua's standards, at least), tends to sing when he thinks no one's looking, and is capable and strong in his own right, he tends to lead from the back and isn't crazy, like the others thing he is, and the visions are also what get Krakua's attention because Vakama could show them the path, if he knew what he was seeing

Vakama's also, for lack of a better term, a nerd, being very good at math, mask-making, and being a good shot with a disk launcher, and also very protective of his friends, new and old, which are things that are admittedly endearing

With the team, Krakua usually takes over night watch, in case everyone needs to sleep, and when he's joined by Vakama, the two sit in silence for a while, maybe sit back-to-back, and, as a weird funny moment, Krakua asks Vakama if he's scared of if there's something he's not really telling anyone else because his heart is POUNDING and Krakua can hear it. It surprises Vakama because he can't hear as well as Krakua and, while he and the other Toa have seen him fight, they never reslly learned what his elemental power was, so it's a shocker to hear he's a Toa of sonics/sound, which Krakua demonstrates by targeting an empty barrel or something and clapping his hands, the sound knocking the barrel down. Vakama's very amazed and impressed, regardless of how "basic" Krakua makes it

There's some teacher/mentor stuff, Krakua teaches the Toa Metru how to fight and how to fully "connect" with their elemental powers, but not 100% teacher/mentor because sometimes the team functions as it usually does and Krakua watches six different Toa figure out how to be a team and talk stuff through, as much as they can, at least, and there are thungs that Vakama and the other Toa Metru have to teach him, amd one of them is to actually let himself sleep at night when he's exhausted to the poont that their talking in indoor voices sounds like shouting for him. Vakama helps by humming and singing under his breath

Outsider perspective, Yeah. The team KNOWS there's something growing between Krakua and Vakama. They see it in the way the two look at each other for one more second, in the tiny little smile that Krakua has when Vakama isn't looking, in the way Vakama speaks both quietly and yet so excited and quickly when Krakua really gets him going, when Vakama's following their "training" and more or less freezes whenever Krakua helps to fix his stance and posture, when Krakua speaks so quietly to Vakama the others can't hear him and Vakama slightly freezes at being so close to the Toa of Sonics, and even the muffled, barely hidden fits of laughter from them both when they're on watch duty at night or whenever the Toa rest. It's a double-edged sword, too: As good as it is to see Vakama be more confident and step up when the team can't really decide who else should, there's the catch that they know Krakua doesn't belong in Metru Nui or with them, that he's only with them because he wants/needs something that they have

Vakama somewhat knows this as well, but admits that he's only working on the Mask of Time because it helps his nerves. Krakua, having spent a lot of time with the Mask-maker, is stuck between the "for the greater good" feeling of asking for Vakama to hand over the mask or taking it from him either by force or by just stealing it from him and more of those icky personal feelings of not wanting to take the possibly greatest creation someone made after years, DECADES, of hard work and gaining his trust, earning his respect and learning so much about him

Krakua does have some trust issues, having been in the Order of Mata Nui, where everyone is mostly on "business partner" terms, so getting close to Vakama, talking with him and letting him inspect his armor and how it stays so sterile, despite all the fighting he does. One of the most vulnerable moments the two share is Vakama seeing that Krakua has scars(idk if Bionicle can even scar, just play along), years and years' worth of scars, and while Krakua admits that he's forgotten the story behind most of them, but one scar he got when his village was attacked and he was found by the Order of Mata Nui. Vakama sees these scars, maybe traces one with his fingers, and admits he wishes he could mend them; as a mask-maker, he can fix things like scratches and fractures on masks, but can do nothing on physical bodies. Krakua appreciates those words and more just means in slightly whenever Vakama traces another scar

The love language between these two is physical touch and singing. I imagine Krakua is possibly touch starved and Vakama is the type to freeze up and maybe turn to putty when either feels a hand on his shoulder or on the side of his face/mask. And the image of the two just holding each other with their foreheads touching is cute. They do sing and catch each other singing. It's something they do for each other, mostly, but the other Toa catch on

They do have their issues, kind of. Krakua notices when Vakama gets in his head and starts acting harshly and rashly after Lhikan dies and reminds him that the team is also grieving the loss of Lhikan and pushing himself to move forward will hurt them more than help. It leads to an argument and things being said that neither means, but Krakua steps back and tells Vakama to go and find the other Matoran, if he really wants to, but Krakua won't be joining them

The Toa Metru still go to find the other Matoran, and Krakua's absence is felt through the team, even when Nokama nearly dies and they have no experienced Toa of sound to help her. They're still paralyzed and surrounded by Visorak, but before they're captured, the cries of the Visorak grow louder, the spiders unable to stop themselves, and one by one the Visorak drop to the ground, either dead or unconscious. And Krakua steps out of the shadows, admitting that is one of the less merciful ways to deal with enemies, using sound and vibration to harm them, but it's effective

The Toa Metru are thankful for the rescue, and surprised to meet the Rahaga, but Vakama and Krakua are briefly on shaky terms before they save each other and spend time together again. Maybe Vakama even admits he knows Krakua just wants the Kanohi Vahi and tells him that, as powerful as it is, he'll let him have it, if he can find it. Krakua also admits that he's hesitant to get the Vahi because one he dies, his mission is complete and he has to leave and but come back, which sucks because he likes the Toa Metru, weird, loud, and sometimes brainless as they are, but more specifically he's grown fond of their leader, who's so many things at once that it kept his stay interesting. It's meant to be a touching moment, a sort "is, but isn't," love confession between the two as they realize that if they had any control over their destinies, they'd use that control to be with each other

Imagining a two v. two in the Hordika arc with Roodaka and Sidorak fighting Vakama and Krakua. It's not 100% an even fight, but it's even enough as Roodaka deals most of the "damage" while Vakama and Krakua look out for each other and make sure the other is alright. Though, really, the two are a distraction as Keetongu joins the fight(they found him for the Rahaga) and the fight changes tides, leading to our heroes gaining the upper hand. UNTIL Roodaka blasts Keetongu and Krakua off the tower. Vakama freezes for a moment and dives after them, jet pack ready. While he catches them, he can't really pull them both up in time and ends up hitting the ground pretty hard with both Krakua and Keetongu close by. Both Toa are injured and can't move all that well when Roodaka and Sidorak find them, Sidorak getting overconfident because the two could have been pretty good allies. Krakua, noticing Keetongu isn't fully out, tells Vakama to try and cover his ears and shouts, using whatever strength he has to make the sound a little louder, more piercing, and it's a good enough distraction for Keetongu to get up and kill Sidorak.

There are more thoughts that are more fanfic-y than anything, these are just what I have off the top of my head
