What is the closed form of the infinite series $g(x) = \sum_{r=1}^{\infty} x^{3^{r}}$ for $|x|<1$?

This series satisfies the following functional equatioin

$$(g(x))^{2} =2\sum_{r=1}^{\infty}g(x^{3^{r}+1})+g(x^{2})$$

We are working on a algebraic problem we have finally ended up with this series $g(x)$. We have not been successful in finding the closed form so far.

I have attached some of our work to find the closed form for the series $g(x)$
