A stage set dressed as a temple gateway with a painted backdrop of two large orange-skinned guardian figures flanking a central doorway, each with multiple arms holding objects. Hanging brass lamps with bells and dark red curtains frame the top. In the doorway, a standing figure in dark clothing holds a trident, with string lights around the opening. Brass oil lamps stand on both sides of the stage, and the green-lit floor reflects the scene.
