”Anyone touch something?” Jinpok asked and looked around. So did Doral.

'What is it?'

That's when they heard a different noise. The noise was not coming from an animal.

”Hmm… what is this?”

”What's this sound?”

They all began to recognize the sound to be a some kind of language.

”It seems to be the language from the lost age.”

”Lost age?” Doral and Jinpok asked back in surprise.

”I don't know all too much about it. Only the elders know a little bit about them. A few words were passed down.”

”What words?”Graham asked.

Doral replied, ”God. Accident. Catastrophe… and such. It is told that God changed the world that had nothing in it, and shaped it to create a world where living beings could live. It is also said that the world was happy until the catastrophe happened. God then left and the world became chaotic… or something similar. It is an old story known to every tribe, but every tribe knows about it a bit differently.”

Joonbum and the others looked intrigued.

”Can you make out any of it?”

”It seems to be a warning.”

”Warning?”

”Then it must be a warning for the intruders.”

Everyone stopped. But nothing was happening.

”Let's go.”

Everyone began to move in. Soon, they came down to a long corridor where a large metal door was blocking their way. Graham enlarged his hand and flung the door open.

”It's clean inside.”

That's when a flash of light blinded everyone while it brightened the inside beyond the door.
