Chapter Text
Macaque thought this whole plan to overthrow the Jade Emperor was extremely cursory.
He had tried to talk to Azure about his concerns with the lack of a real plan, but any attempt to convince him this was a bad idea was squandered by his extravagant talk of how important and lucrative their efforts would be for the people. Azure really thought that if they took down one leader of the Celestial Realm it would solve all of the Mortal Realms problems. Macaque noticed the more Azure Lion and the rest of the brotherhood hyperfocused on this one aspect of their main goal, the more the reason they were doing any of this was being lost on them all. Macaque couldn't vocalize these worries though. He feared that as their opinions and views grew apart that it might shatter their bond and jeopardize everything they've worked for. Even if dethroning the Jade Emperor was an impossible task, maybe with enough time he could steer the brotherhood into a more local approach for their cause? Go town to town defending them from demons maybe? It seemed like a more achievable goal than the one Azure had his heart set on now.
