based off a little sketch many cousin made, or atleast what i think it's supposed to look like
so incase anyone even cared, I got my cousin to chat online and he explained how both of the bell guys aren't evolution but just embodiments of souls trapped in a petrified woodland area during a great fire, with the bells being human children and the cowbells are adolescents/fairies who died during it, and the cymbal flogger is the new guardian who's also the
damsel of the woods (please don't ask). For a place called the petrified woods it has some pretty interesting lore
