I've been rewatching TTS episodes (the youtube Disney Channel finally released all s1 episodes in my country!) and I realized that in Painter's Block, Xavier explains that Demanitus captured evil spirits and kept them prisoner in the hidden mountain chamber that holds the Demanitus Device.

We see this scene:

Sugracha's spirit was released after the "block" in the middle of this screenshot was broken. We see that there's more "blocks" beside it, so this combined with Xavier's explanation leads me to believe there's more spirits (people?) like Sugracha and Tromus kept prisoner inside them, and the fact all of them most likely have Zhan Tiri's crest on them implies to me that there are way, more followers of Zhan Tiri than we saw in the show.

Sugracha and Tromus may have been only two of her Disciples, the only ones who previously followed Demanitus.

I wonder how many Disciples he locked inside that chamber...

Kidnap Lord Demanitus Kidnap Demanitus, lock him up real tight Throw away the key and then Turn off all the lights

Because sir Zhan Tiri is the meanest guy around If I were on his enemy-list, I'd get out of town He'll be so pleased by our success That he'll reward us too, I bet We're his little henchmen And we take our job with pride We do our best to please him And stay on his good side

GOTHEL I wish my cohorts weren't so dumb

SUGARBY You're no fun

GOTHEL Shut up!

MATTHEWS Make me

Doodle trade with @qu-r of Matthews and Rapunzel!! He’s telling her a story about the villain Demanitus, and their noble lord Zhan Tiri~

Here’s my half of an art trade I did with @qu-r, who asked for Rapunzel and Matthews. I tried my best to give it the feel of an official illustration haha. Just two friends sharing tea together, nothing suspicious at all.

Your art style is so pretty and it’s super generous of you to do so many exchanges. Thank you so much for trading with me!

(Their part here.)

I have a question that I don't know if you can answer, but I'm asking, anyway!

In Moonlight, have you any plans for any of the disciples to return?

In canon, Sugracha was yeeted into a portal and Matthews promised to return before turning to dust. Neither felt too permanent and seeing how you utilize so many under-utilized characters, I have to wonder.

What about the not-so-loyal disciples who found eternal life?

I definitely plan to play around with the Disciples in Moonrise! Zhan Tiri is an extremely important character in the story and to me it makes no sense for her not to have her Disciples back at some point.

In my AU I made it so that Sugracha wasn't sent into the Lost Realm with ZT because it'd be bad for my storyline, so she was arrested in Painter's Block and escaped when Ruddiger's monstrous form damaged the dungeons, allowing her and many others to run away.

I won't be saying much else besides the fact that both she and Tromus will show up eventually :] !!!
