Malenka in Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire

Malenka is the residential city of an Iwi tribe within the Subterranean Realm of the Hollow Earth. It is comprised of the people's village, two trios of electromagnetic pyramids pointing at each other from opposing Hollow Earth surfaces, and two visible Hollow Earth vortexes that directly link to the surface of the planet. One of the vortexes leads to Giza, Egypt while the other leads to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The area is concealed and hidden from the surrounding environment by a dome composed of a water-composed silk-like substance with light-manipulating properties, possibly composed of Mothra's silk since she repaired the hole made in the veil by Shimo and the Skar King with such. The dome is partially controlled by the Iwi through a complex pulley system that allows them to carefully open and seal close a hole in the structure large enough for a Titan to enter through.

History

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire

Prior to discovering Malenka, the human characters, as well as Godzilla, receive a powerful signal originating for the yet unseen realm within the undiscovered subterranean level of the Hollow Earth.

Some time later, Jia discovers Iwi ruins, centuries older than those on Skull Island. The team ascends a staircase, where they find a stone wall carving of Mothra. Jia realizes the ruins are her temple. A glowing dragonfly leads her to a stone button which she presses to trigger a still-functional irrigation system. They follow the flow of water to a strange, rippling barrier. After Beasley tests it, Jia pulls apart a section to create an opening, and the team steps through.

Not long afterwards, as Andrews' group ascends a tall flight of stairs, Jia tells them they're not alone, though they see no one. Beasley draws a knife, and just as quickly puts it away when a group of camouflaged Iwi warriors surround them. They bring them to a village where massive glowing pyramids, three on the ground and three on the ceiling, loom overhead. Jia is amazed to discover that she can hear the thoughts of the other Iwi. Andrews is equally stunned to see multiple vortexes to the surface on the ceiling. The Iwi queen soon appears and orders that Jia be brought to her, despite the protests of the rest of the group. Jia shares her memories of her people with the queen telepathically, and she signals for her guards to stand down. Jia confirms to Andrews that the distress call came from the Iwi. Hayes questions what a civilization that survives in the Hollow Earth could be afraid of.

While Suko lead Kong to the Living Caves, the Iwi queen lead Andrews' team to a room covered in Iwi historical writings, which the linguist translates. It describes harmony between the Hollow Earth and the surface, with the Titans protecting nature and the Great Apes defending humanity. One such ape, the malevolent Skar King, sought to conquer the surface and led his tribe into battle against Godzilla. The King of the Monsters barely survived the war, but ultimately sealed the apes away in a fiery Hollow Earth realm, where their leader still plots his revenge.

Reading further, Andrews identifies a massive reptilian Titan as Shimo, whose frost powers caused the Last Ice Age. She realizes that the Iwi sent the distress call because they anticipated that Kong, searching for his kind, would soon discover the Skar King's army; Godzilla is preparing for war for the same reason. The Iwi writings close with a prophecy: at the end of the world, an Iwi from Skull Island will come to her people's defense by summoning Godzilla's steadfast ally, Mothra. They all realize this can only be referring to Jia.

Some time later, Andrews watches as Jia quickly fits in amongst the Hollow Earth Iwi, reflecting to Beasley that she promised herself to sacrifice whatever was necessary to give Jia a good life. She's realizing now that she may have to give up Jia herself. Hayes and Beasley watch a team of Iwi lift a huge stone, the result of gravity manipulation by way of the pyramids. Beasley discourages Hayes from sharing the Iwi's civilization with the surface, reminding him that isolated communities never prosper when the outside world finds them. He reassures him that even if some people online don't believe he helped save the world, it's an accomplishment that can't be taken away from him.

Suddenly, the Iwi open their barrier to let in Kong and Suko, unknowingly allowing One-Eye to glimpse their realm and its portals to the surface. Kong collapses from exhaustion, but sits up to touch a finger to Jia's hand. He signs to her that he lost his home. Inspecting Kong's frostbite, Beasley proposes returning to Outpost One to bring back the prototype from Project Powerhouse. Andrews explains to Hayes that the project was a post-Mechagodzilla effort to empower Kong against any other malevolent Titan that might arise. He flies the prototype B.E.A.S.T. Glove over to Kong and it fits itself around his damaged hand. After receiving injections from the glove to heal his frostbite, Kong struggles to climb up a hillside, but soon adjusts to the device, testing its electrical capabilities by pounding the ground. Suko returns with a warning that the Skar King's army is on the way. Jia asks Kong to seek out Godzilla for help, and he heads for a portal.

While Kong attracted Godzilla to his position with a battle cry, Jia ascended the steps to the top of the Iwi pyramid and extends a hand, causing Mothra to be resurrected and materialize before her in her imago form. She departs for the same portal as Kong. The Iwi queen orders the village evacuated, and Beasley asks Andrews permission to gather reinforcements. Afterwards, the Iwi release a liquid metal to force together the two largest electromagnetic pyramids, which will unleash a brief antigravity shock wave when they collide. The Skar King uses Kong's axe to breach the barrier, and commands Shimo to freeze the gap between the pyramids, preventing them from touching. Beasley returns with a flock of Vertacines, having used the HEAV's camouflage to lure them. They briefly hold back the Skar King's army, buying Beasley enough time to land and pick up a gleeful Hayes, Andrews, the Iwi queen, and one of her guards before Shimo shoots the creatures down. Godzilla and Kong launch from the vortex and charge towards the army as the ice between the pyramids shatters and they resume moving. Kong hops on Godzilla's back, then launches himself at the Skar King while Godzilla pounces toward Shimo. The Skar King leaps off Shimo's back to meet Kong mid-air, while Shimo lunges at Godzilla. Before they can reach each other, the pyramids collide, and the ensuing shock wave sends all the monsters floating through the air. Godzilla fights off a few apes before reaching Shimo. Kong blocks a strike from the Skar King's axe with the B.E.A.S.T. Glove. Mothra saves the malfunctioning HEAV from an ape with a blast of silk, then disables two more. One-Eye attacks Kong from behind, but Suko repels him with a pair of boulders. Shimo freezes Godzilla, but Mothra interrupts her by throwing a rock at her face, allowing Godzilla to shatter the ice and resume his attack. The antigravity wave starts to wear off, sending all the monsters falling. The Skar King launches himself towards a vortex, followed by Godzilla, Shimo, and Kong, who loses his axe in the process. Mothra catches the HEAV and sets it down safely. Suko kicks One-Eye off a crystal cliff to his death.

As the fight is concluded back on the Surface World, Mothra returned Jia to Andrews before flying off. She tells Jia that she would support her staying with the Iwi instead, but her daughter assures her that they'll continue to do everything together, and that she's her real home. They embrace as an emotional Hayes and Beasley look on. Mothra sealed the barrier around Malenka with her silk and flew away to elsewhere in Hollow Earth. Andrews' team say their goodbyes to each other and the Iwi.

Vile vortexes

Malenka houses two vile vortexes that both lead to the surface world. One leads to the pyramids of Giza in Cairo, Egypt, linking to a spot right next to one of the pyramids. The other vortex leads to the Atlantic Ocean in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, linking to a spot in the sea right in front of Copacabana beach.

Mothra cocoon

Right in between the largest pair of Electromagnetic pyramids lies a pocket of untouched space where Mothra formerly lied in wait of her summoning. Here, after Jia touched this supernatural formation, Mothra manifested into physical form in her imago state in front of Jia. The nature of this phenomenon remains unexplored in any of Malenka's appearances.
