DODs is in rule, and Scoria is left to sit in her place, a ball of rage. DODs however, can see it on the player that if they've made it to the third land, there's gotta be something up with them. He wastes no time, and locks them up in a gem prison!
The player isn't alone though- sitting in the back is a big hunk of a dragon named Gochugaru. He's the best chef of all the lands, and is very shocked to see someone as petite and small as the player.. locked up as well. He vows to be the player's personal bodyguard, if.. well.. they can get out of the prison.
While locked up, he has time to explain and answer some questions. He's a smart guy with a vast knowledge, since he's traveled all over the world and cooked for the mightiest of Bosses. The Veering Valley creates raw electricity from wind, which is sent directly to the Polyphase Powerplant. With power, the powerplant can create a tremendous amount of light. This light travels to the Seering Sanctum, and reflects from crystal to crystal, lighting the land up. The Sanctum creates an incredible amount of heat, and the heat rises to the final land. The land floats in the sky, and without the heat, it's frozen. And... this final land is what the player needed all along, water.
In fact, all of the lands have been needing water for a long time. If the final land cannot function, there will be no wind for the valley.. no light... no heat.. and so on.
