With financial aid of Foxtonia, Kounélian researches organize a second expedition up to The Gate of Monsters to study its inner structure further.
Both parties remain in a semi-permanent research camp outside the main structure for four years, gathering up more information regarding the gate's origin.
Scientists deduct that all materials used in its construction are native to Oxum, yet the method the gate's creators used to construct it remains a mystery.
Foxtonians start to believe it was built by deities as only they must have the power to construct such an intricate device, Kounélians remain skeptical of this theory.
