We didn't need someone to rival the Kalesians yet, if that's why you created them I actually think it detracts from the suspense of the story.I'll think on an origin, it was never my intention for them to be replicated. In fact, even if someone tried studying them what would they find that clued them in to its origins?

*shrug* It wasn't the main reason really. I really do like the Egyptian culture, the infrastructure and the history. I made them because I am going to add a lot of lore and I want to show a different aspect to what has been seen so far. 

Rivaling the Kalesians actually only came up as a bi-product today as Ellri feels it is likely they are long term rivals.
