The Kremlings appear to originate from [[Crocodile Isle]], an island close to [[Donkey Kong Island]] that disappeared from the map during the events of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. According to that game's manual, it is rumored that the [[Lost World (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Lost World]] is the source of the Kremlings.<ref>[https://www.gamesdatabase.org/Media/SYSTEM/Nintendo_SNES/manual/Formated/Donkey_Kong_Country_2-_Diddy-s_Kong_Quest_-_1995_-_Nintendo.pdf ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' instruction booklet, page 22]</ref> However, various ruins on Donkey Kong Island, such as the ones in [[Millstone Mayhem]], depict Kremling visages, potentially meaning they have some history there as well. [[Kremlantis]] is a semi-submerged complex that also features several temples with Kremling visages. | The Kremlings appear to originate from [[Crocodile Isle]], an island close to [[Donkey Kong Island]] that disappeared from the map during the events of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''.
