As Phoenix, Timor, and Loner ventured to the edges of the country, the landscape transitioned into a coastal realm where the whispers of the sea met the somber echoes of the forest. It was here that they encountered August, a resilient Merlion who had weathered Galeem's influence.

August, with a regal presence, greeted the team. "Survivors of the attack, I see?  I am August, a Merlion who has endured the tides of change. How may I aid you on your journey?"

Phoenix, appreciating the offer of assistance, explained their quest to free the spirits, confront Galeem and Dharkon, and restore balance to the world. As the conversation unfolded, it became apparent that August, with his mastery of the seas, could be a valuable ally.

"I offer you the currents of the ocean, a swift passage to your chosen destination. Where shall your journey take you next?" August inquired.

After some discussion, Phoenix declared, "Our next destination is Indonesia. We must free the spirits held captive by Galeem's influence."

August nodded, his majestic fin swaying with a sense of purpose. "Climb aboard, my friends. I shall carry you across the waves to the archipelago of Indonesia."

The team settled on August's back as he gracefully navigated the ocean currents. The rhythmic sound of waves served as a backdrop to their journey, a testament to the alliance forged between the celestial survivor, the freed personification, and the resilient Merlion.

Upon arriving in Indonesia, August, true to his noble nature, offered a parting gift. "Take this Merlion Plushie. Should you ever need my aid, squeeze it tightly, and I shall come to your assistance."

Grateful for the gesture, Phoenix accepted the plushie, unaware of its deeper significance. As the team stepped onto Indonesian soil, the Merlion Plushie served as a silent guardian, a token of alliance that would prove invaluable in the trials that awaited them later on.

Little did they know that the plushie harbored memories of a distant time—a memory item from a country that once thrived in the heart of Southeast Asia. The journey, now intertwined with the mysteries of memory, continued as the team braced themselves for the challenges that lay ahead in the archipelago of Indonesia.
