It’s a whole new world they live in,
It’s a whole new world to see,
It’s a whole new world, with a brand new attitude,
But the same copyrighted song . . . so I hope they don’t mind me.

To Derantu! Zhop didn’t work out so well, but I’m sure Derantu will be amazing.

There’s gotta be some conflict, but just maybe they’ll be having found the place more accommodating. Hex, maybe there won’t have been any conflict and we’ll just write one or two hundred pages of Top saying stupid stuff. Can’t wait.

Then let’s not, let’s go.

But first: hi, reader. In case you took a long break between parts 1 and 2, here’s a recap: Top was a beach ball, Alden was smart, and Ropak said you owe him five bucks. Oh, and Alden’s older brother, Xavier, and his uncle, Orville Melendez Gray, were with him. And former pilot of the Zhopian Guard, Captain Duval, who was accidentally pulled along into this fiasco. He was a bird! He was flying a plane! Well actually he was flying a spaceship. Same difference. We’re going to Derantu!

The Cloud’s returning to Derantu! Cloud’uckoo Cosmos!
