In the game
Dr. FunFrock, or a clone of him, somehow escaped from Twinsun after his fight with Twinsen and arrived on Zeelich, a grey planet surrounded with a thick layer of gas in which monsters float freely about and seas of lava flow underneath it. FunFrock, up for more evil plans, made a pact with the Emperor of Zeelich, and disguised himself as Dark Monk, the God of Zeelich. The religious Esmers believed everything he said and prepared a plan to destroy Twinsun, because "Dark Monk" instructed them to do so. Jerome Baldino is right on time to find this out and calls in the help of Twinsen, now the well known savior of Twinsun.
Twinsen once again takes the job of the hero to save his planet, and travels to Zeelich. There he unmasks Dark Monk and the plan that the Emperor was preparing, right in front of the deceived Esmers. They are right on time to help Twinsen to stop the destruction of the planet. During his quest, Twinsen actually assembls all four fragments of Dark Monk's key and makes the prophecy of the real Dark Monk come true. Zeelich is now once again a green paradise, without gas or lava present on its surface.
Unconfirmed theories
Although FunFrock took the role of Dark Monk, the prophecy of Dark Monk must have been true for the prophecy to be fulfilled. Dark Monk probably does exist, but never takes the form of a mortal, like FunFrock. Perhaps all the prophecy wanted was to reunite the four races of Zeelich by bringing together all four key fragments, which was fulfilled by Twinsen himself, only trying to save his own planet.
