Hiya

I wanna ramble a bit about this. And once again, if I am wrong about the lore, please let me know.

So my theory about the Crimson Knights being hybrids was wrong (I will get their powers later), but as one theory dies, another is born anew. I think the Marzipans could be Carmine's ancestors. While I mostly talk about Ash, it doesn't really matter who's the ancestor specifically; I just think they're related to Carmine.

They all have future sight, to varying degrees, but still they have it. It's also implied to be a genetic trait that the Marzipans have, starting with Emma (Malt, Mei, and Ash's mother).

We never find out who Carmine's parents are before he was experimented on. Heck, I'm not even sure what his last name is or if Carmine even is his real name!

Quynne helped Carmine escape and watched over Red during the events of Solatorobo. If he went back to the era of Fuga (somehow), he would have an interest in making sure the timeline plays out as is. Ya know, so Shepherd isn't destroyed.

What if Carmine was in the Scarlet Order? Quynne clearly is, and both he and Carmine were all wearing red garments, which are now associated with the order.

Why would CC2 make visual and story associations between Ash and Carmine for no reason?

Right now, I see a big problem with this, and it's the question of how Quynne went BACK IN TIME??? He was an experimental hybrid from several hundreds of years after Fuga's time. He IS another way to connect the Marzipans to Carmine. But how did he do this? I and a lot of other people do not know. Quynne is a very mysterious character to begin with; there's barely any information on him. There is a theory that Quynne related to the Marzipans. Mei and Malt are the only characters who can time travel, so maybe???

Overall, the Marzipans have SOMETHING to do with Carmine, but only time will tell, I guess.

Now, about the Crimson Knights...

The series states that the only new world people who can wield Nono are Felineko with the aptitude and members of the wolf tribe. So if that is the case...why can the Crimson knights, who are regular Caninu, use Nono-like abilities?

They are not hybrids; that much is very clear. But they also haven't been enhanced by the Berman Empire or Blutwurst. Sure, their mechs do enhance their powers via bio-batteries. But as seen in Malt's kidnapping, they can use their powers on their own. Additionally, Tierre had her mind powers before she had any interaction with the Berman army. So what is going on????

I think they all had an interaction with Juno or Pseudo Juno technology that changed their biology. Look back at Emma Marzipan, she was sick for a time, then she was taken care of by Cathrine. What if she came in contact with Juno technology and it changed her? What if Cathrine used Juno technology to heal Emma?

Or are all these Nono-wielding Caninu related to the wolf tribe after all? I'm just throwing ideas at the wall to see what sticks. In truth, I have no idea when, how, or even if CC2 will explain this. An explanation would be nice, so it's consistent.
