**Scene 39 – Dark Cloud Planet – "Guardian Dragon Lake"**
*Finally, he arrived at a stunning lake, sparkling under the moonlight like jewels, nestled at the foot of an inactive volcano. Mr. Josser dismounted and waited a moment. Soon after, a white dragon appeared—not gigantic, but of ordinary size, about the size of twenty villas. This is considered a normal size in this world.*
*The guardian dragon opened its mouth, and Mr. Josser entered. The dragon closed its mouth and dived into the depths, submerging deeply. After some time, it emerged into a cavern-like space. Mr. Josser dismounted and walked a long way inside the cavern, which was illuminated by torches fixed along its walls, until he reached a stone gate.*
*The gate opened on its own, revealing three warriors who appeared as elders, their white beards long and flowing, suggesting ages over a thousand years. But note—(they "appear" as elders), perhaps this is just their form. They also radiate wisdom.*
*Mr. Josser assumed the warrior's salute and presented it, saying:*
"Respect and honor to Master Jorawi, Guardian of the Third Foundation – Exile Gates.
Respect and honor to Master Devoni, Guardian of the Fourth Foundation – Containment Gates.
Respect and honor to Master Iosin, Guardian of the Fifth Foundation – Transfer Gates.
Respect and honor to you all."
*Jorawi responded:*
"Greetings to you… and welcome, Josser Axors, Fighter of the Unknown. We have been expecting your arrival."
*(This is the full title by which the Unknown Warriors are known: Axors, Fighter of the Unknown.)*
*Josser replied:*
"The last time I came here was long ago…
I have returned today because the crystal at the center of the Red Spiral on the Forbidden Earth has begun to pulse…
So I knew the time had come to consult with you."
*Iosin said:*
"A wise choice by a wise fighter… As always, you remain Josser."
*Devoni added:*
"The 'Four Comets' have already gone on a mission to gather all the Unknown Warriors,
preparing to face the imminent 'Greatest Danger'."
*Jorawi:*
"They are a select group among the most powerful warriors ever."
