The Wallaki Brothers were the infamous leaders of a Akshish network during the sixties.

The Hachahatak Connexion, also simply known as the Akshish, "the Root", is an organized crime syndicate originating in the region of Eunos and Ekab and has an heavy presence all around the Kayamuca Sea, especially in Belfras, the Mutul, and Ayeli. It is a loose association of criminal groups that share a common organisational structure and code of conduct. It originated as an association of terrorist groups and militant organizations fighting or promoting the idea of a independent Hachahatak State in southern Belfras. After a few decades of violence, it devolved into a loose association of criminal groups with the core activities of racketeering, the arbitration of disputes between criminals, and drug traficking and other acts of smuggling.

History

After 1916

Following the devastation caused by the repression of the ill-fated Hachawaya, many Hachahatak migrated to the Mutul or other countries. New districts appeared in the Yajawil of Ekab filled with these refugees, who kept contact with their relatives that had remained on the other side of the Nor-Oxi Strait.

The first published account of what became known as "The Root" dates to the year 1930, during the Belfro-Mutulese War of 1928. A journalist reported that a number of Hachahatak-majority districts had become home of relatively large associations of criminals offering protection services against both the authorities and rival gangs. Post-war, they gradually progressed from small neighborhood operations to citywide and eventually state-wide organizations.

Shikoba Hushima was a Hachahatak independentist who had fled with his family to the Mutul after the defeat of Hachawaya. He returned to Belfras in 1936 under a false name and, alongside a few other relatives and allies, created the Silent Hand. The Silent Hand was a group that conducted a large number of terrorist attacks in Belfras, boasting that they fought for the "resurection of Hachawaya". They used extortions, kidnapping, and drug trafficking, as their main sources of revenues, and also smuggled weapons and explosives into Belfras to perform attacks on police officers and bank robberies. Most members of the Silent Hand ended up captured or killed, and it was disbanded. But a number of smaller organizations, either splinter cells or copycats, continued the fight for an independent Hachawaya.

The main strength of these groups, all claiming to be part of a larger association known as "The Root", was their connexion with other Hachahatak communities in the Mutul. This gave them a greater access to drugs such as opium, cannabis, and coca leaves. The money obtained from drug trafficking allowed them to become the criminal lords of large networks of extortions, legal and illegal enterprises in Eunos paying a protection fee to "The Root".

The Root is a loose collection of around one hundred organised groups, called Iskas or "Clan". Each Iska generally has a claim over a territory, usually a town, a village, or a neighborhood, but it is not always the case. There's an estimated worldwide 10,000 members of the Akshish.

Most of the Iskas operate in Eunos and Ekab. They are concentrated in the poor neighborhoods of the two States, which serve as their strongholds. In Ekab, the Sanctuary of Xaman Ek in Tupak has long been the meeting place of the "Imoklasha".
