"Lemuria?" Antaeus asked incredulously.

"Yes. Although, that is only speculation." Nereus responded.

"So, if they are Lemurian, they're keeping a low profile." Will noted. The three of them were in William's office, all trying to figure out the mysterious savior.

"I believe so, but if they knew we were here to protect it and bring it back, then maybe they'll open up." Nereus suggested, unsure.

"Well why are we just sitting here? Let's go!" Ant exclaimed, excitement in his bubbly voice as he ran to the control room.

"So, you're saying these people are from Lemuria?" Kaiko asked, a brow arched in speculation. "Or are they descendants?"

"Well the people on this island believe that every hundred years, Lemurian guardians will inhabit the island. No one knows who they are or how many will come." Nereus explained. "Even us guardians don't know."

"Wait, so, if you're guardians and they're guardians, shouldn't you at least have some idea?" Fontaine raised her brows.

"Well, like I said, this is only speculation. But it could be that we are only descendants while these are Lemurian. Born and bred."

"So, what, we go over to this random island and say we are looking for a Lemurian guardian?" Fontaine asked placing a hand on her hip. "How well do you think that will turn out."

"Why don't we go over as tourists. They have plenty of those this time of year." Ant suggested. William hummed.

"Well, guess we're going on a vacation." The family looked at each other with wide smiles.

"We will be arriving in ten minutes." Kaiko explained as she drove the Aronax toward the small island.

"The Sori Islanders will be quite cautious. Only a few certain areas of this island are open to tourists. The other villages here like to keep their villages and land away from electronics of any form and what not due to past events." Nereus warned. Ant nodded.

"Right, got it. No electronics." Ant said as he played with his fish. "who knows Jeffery, maybe you'll make some friends!"

"Or they'll kill him and eat him." Fontaine suggested with a smirk. Antaeus gasps as he covered his friend from her view.

"Fontaine!" Kaiko scolded.

"Sorry."

"Okay kids, Nereus, we're docking, strap in." The three followed Kaiko's orders.

After they had docked the five of them walked out of the Nekton home. Some aborigines of the island held spears at them, until they notice the familiar old man.

"Palaya suhrtte, ninnale vintum kanunnat nallatan!" (Old friend, good to see you again!) The older looking man said in greeting to Nereus.

"Ninnaleyum kanan santeasamunt." (Good to see you too.) Nereus replied with a smile as they did a weird and tradition greeting of sorts. 

"Lemuriyan raksakarttakkalute visayattil nannal iviteyunt." (We are here on the subject of Lemurian guardians.) Nereus explained in a more hushed tone. the old native saddened

"Nannale sahayikkan avar ivite untayirunnenkil matram."(If only they were here to help us now.) He whispered.

"Anyone know what they're saying?" Fontaine asked as she held the back of Ant's color in order to stop him from wandering off.
