As the shadow of night stretched over Kaiju Bay and Sakana Cove, Jett, the newly anointed guardian of the Beacon of the Abyss, climbed the ancient, winding stone staircase spiraling up the heart of the now silent Beacon of the Abyss. Each step echoed in the damp darkness, a somber reminder of the heavy responsibility now resting on his shoulders. The roaring wind outside battered the stone structure, whispering of the guardian who had fallen, leaving behind a legacy of vigilance and sacrifice.

Reaching the top, Jett pushed open the heavy door to the beacon chamber and stepped into a realm where the wind's howl softened to a hushed whisper. Here, amidst the remnants of chaos left by the gargoyle's attack, lay his burden and hope—a luminous moon rock, softly glowing with celestial light. It was not the Sunfire Pearl, whose radiant energy once acted as a bulwark against the darkness and its denizens. This moon rock, while bright, served merely as a placeholder, its light luminous but not protective.

With reverence born of desperation, Jett installed the moon rock atop the beacon. Its glow filled the chamber, casting long shadows that danced like specters on the walls. For a moment, the weight of solitude pressed heavily upon him, a tangible reminder of the guardian's fate he now inherited.

Stepping out onto the balcony that encircled the beacon, Jett surveyed the expanse of Kaiju Bay below. The moon rock's light reached out across the waters, a silver thread weaving through the darkness. But it was a fragile barrier, and the shadows gathered hungrily at its edges.

There, amidst the churning waves, Jett noticed movement—subtle at first, then growing more defined. Krakenfang spiders, their dark forms skittering across the surface of the bay, drawn to the beacon's light yet undeterred by its presence. Their eyes, gleaming with a deadly intelligence, fixed upon the lighthouse, upon him.
