The more Zok learned about the Guardians, the more he realised how amazingly weird the title of the guardian was. They might have been called so, however, from what Sofina had told him, they acted more like bullies rather than guardians.
There were twenty of them, each one had been allotted an area of the planet to rule over and take care of by some higher existence. An existence that even Sofina refused to tell him about. Zok suspected it had to be a god just like Okun or the depraved one.
Also, there was one more thing. Occuna was seemingly much much bigger than Zok could have even imagined. It was such a huge planet, that's why it needed to have so many guardians to look after it. But even then, they were doing a terrible job at guarding anything.
