: I think this is the general idea. Their names are also
: roughly similar.
Yeah so we've proven that they are kin. Its obvious. But I want to know HOW. HOW are they related?
*Did the Trow not enslave all of them? But then why did they change their name? Why did the Trow not finish em off for insulting their honor?
*Did a minority refuse to fight the Trow when they were freed and this made them dishonorable, hence the name change?
*Did a group survive the final battles? But how? It would explain the name change; they decided that they had dishonored themselves by surviving, so they changed their name perhaps?
*Did the Trow, in regret for destroying most of the race, (the regret DID cause them to abandon their steel sledgehammers) let some prisoners north with the agreement that theyh disown their name and never come back to the land of the Trow, or speak the name Nyx?
: Bleh. This is in my top 3 list for MJ's worst contortions
: of the Myth story.
I actually think it spices things up. I mean, now we have some side plots for a fourth myth game (Phelot survived, The Deceiver may not have died, we dont know what happened to the kiddies of Ravanna and Damas, The Watcher might not have died, ect, and the Oghre/Maul could help in these!) Imagine that; you control groups of Maul and Oghre into battle instead of Bezerks for a few missions.
And anyway, I had my suspicions about the Maul. Kinda obvious when you think about it (I mean, they're RIGHT NEXT to the Trow.) Plus they seem to me as the most interesting of the races; they aren't evil in a sense, but they love war. They aren't stupid, but they seem dull and loutish (After all, Maul were learning dreams, but they talk like people who inhale paint.) So perhaps we could see Maul on our side in Myth 4, and we could learn more about their race.
