^Oh wait. We shouldnt even be calling them Zorn and Thorn should we?

It's just one beast.

Anyway, I was just reading this bit:

Zorn: "No one is here!"

Thorn: "Is no one here, really?"

Zorn: "Yes!"

Thorn: "Sure, you are about that?"

Zorn: "That is enough!"

Thorn: "Now, we do what?"

Zorn: "We are going to ask Princess Garnet if we can return to the
castle."

Thorn: "Return to the castle? Can we really!?"

Zorn: "I will not know until--!!! We must hide!"

[Marcus and Blank appear; Zorn and Thorn hide behind a statue.]

Blank: "Looks like no one's here."

Marcus: "Yeah."

Blank: "I guess this is about the only thing we can do for
Zidane... ...keep up the night watch and preserve
Alexandria's peace."

Marcus: "Yeah, I think so, too."

Blank: "What a peaceful night. It's almost scary... Okay, let's
finish our rounds."

Marcus: "Alright."

[They run off.]

Zorn: "That was close."

Thorn: "Now what?"

Zorn: "We cannot stay as long as those meddlers are here! We must
leave Alexandria!"

[The two clowns run out of town.]


It seems like they are not directly under Kuja's control, unless if Kuja would have preferred them to have been keeping an eye on Garnet. Whether they were under Kuja's control initially, do you have any other evidence? That was a good point about Kuja knowing about the beast.


But how would he ensure that Zorn and Thorn became Brahne's servants? Interesting. We really dont know much about their history.
