The Tower has a simple meaning: The crumbling of the status quo. All that you held to be true is suddenly not true. The world looks different, and it can feel like a disaster. [...] The ground is unsteady beneath our feet. We don’t know what to hold on to. [...] One thing is for sure: life will never be the same again.

AND ANOTHER THING WHILE IM ON THE TOPIC
I feel like Knuckles the series is another one of those times that Tails was right there, and what I mean by this, is Wade should not have been in the focus of the show, sorry don't care lol. He's a fine side character, incompetent white man who doesn't do anything well and never gets consequences for it is fine, but we didn't need another show centered around that topic.
Now, I may be biased bc Tails is my favorite but if we needed to give Knuckles a journey about learning to find home and we needed to give him a powerful sidekick who also learns a lesson, Tails is right there. Tails, who grew up without a family entirely/a family who hated him is learning to accept a new family, and Knuckles, who had an entire family but lost them all is accepting that it's okay to find a new one. That literally could've been the plot and we could've kept all the shenanigans that happened, minus the Wade Whipple bowling tournament plot, and the copaganda.
The elder guardians would've loved for Tails (or even Sonic, or ffs MADDIE) to be the newest successors of their tribe, and he would've been perfect for it. A young, hopeful, bright mind, still malleable to learn the ways of the tribe and no ego to get in the way, and an overall good kid.
Plus I feel like what most of us want is to see the boys interact, not some random white guy.

Genuinely I hate the way Knuckles will get flanderised to being incredibly dense because it literally started because he was manipulated by Eggman in S3&K. Like it's not his fault he was manipulated, why is he considered the dumb one because he was manipulated by the evil capitalist who stuffs animals into machines and kills plant life for the sake of his amusement parks and casinos. Why has Sega been trying to steer Eggman away so much from his root evils (which I would understand if they have been explored enough, but they very much haven't) so much that they've ended up putting other characters down for believing his predatory lies???
