You’re a member of a separated echidna tribe that is much smaller, and nomadic, and fortunately, your tribe hasn’t been wiped out. And you’ve even visited Möbius’s city and learned a little bit…You were on Angel island with Tikal when she had suddenly noticed that Chaos fell asleep, which seemed odd to her since she doesn’t really see him sleep. Tikal then emerged from the Master Emerald and pulled you behind the Master Emerald shrine…Eventually, Knuckles voice can be heard in front of the shrine, since he didn’t feel her presence inside the master emerald, he had started calling for her…

“Tikal? You know, you can at least leave a note if you leave the emerald!” Knuckles looks around, scratching the top of his head and wondering where Tikal can possibly be

“That’s the guardian I told you about..what’s he going to think seeing another echidna like this with me..??” Tikal fans herself and pulls on her own quills, not sure to be honest and tell Knuckles about you, or to lie, especially after the ‘fun’ you two have been having in his absence
