Headscratchers / The Eternal Cylinder

  • If two Tonglegrops collide they One-Hit KO each other instantly. Is this a glitch in the beta? Because it only takes a touch to kill both, so are they supposed to fight each other but the animation wasn't fully implemented?
    • Maybe they're just incredibly toxic and corrosive even to their own kind?
  • What's up with the "Trewhaala Legs" and "Trewhaala Trunk" mutations? Is it implying that the Trewhaala used to have those parts or is it more of a symbolic representation of their lost power?
  • The Trewhaala are not native to the Trebhum's homeworld, having migrated there a few centuries ago. So why are there scavengers on the planet specifically adapted to consuming Trewhaala corpses?
  • How exactly do Gaaahrs filter-feed? Especially since they look like giraffes or sauropods, implying a browser lifestyle, but apparently they feed more like whales. On land.
  • At the end of Act 3 when you enter the Mathematician's portal again, look up. There's a planet in the "sky" which is the Cylinder's memories. It seems to still have geographical features, which any planet wiped clean by the Cylinder would not have. Is that where the Cylinder came from?
