I think Kettleman has a single line of dialogue saying he was knocked out and his stones were taken, but it happens a while after he wanders back into the MSQ so it's totally reasonable to think it was weird. They definitely made it look like he was murdered.


I thought it was weird how Bakool Ja Ja got one punch man'd by Zoraal Ja, and Zoraal Ja's advisor guy was like "he might prove useful", and then Bakool Ja Ja starts doing a bunch of nonsense that isn't going to help him win like releasing the bird, and apparently running away after annoying Koana in that mountain dungeon instead of just walking to the top and getting a free stone. So you'd think the pay off would be that Zoraal Ja was making him do that, but it never comes up again and he was just doing stupid stuff on his own I guess?
