Inside the Forbidden Zone

Despite her withered and diminutive frame the old woman before you radiates unbelievable cosmic power. You have never faced an entity this powerful since you were visited by the face of Norn. Unlike Norn, Sensei Qqaba doesn't not hide her ancient form.

Flanking her is the Zenkai warrior you recently encountered beyond the Forbidden Zone, Zathura. She clearly hasn't forgotten you or your ship. She flexes in rage, flaring the crackling waves of energy cascading around her lithe form.

Adela also discovered that her resistance cabal also consisted of several supervillains from her original timeline; including Prof. Gorillapocalypse, The Big Brain, Lady Deathtrap and, to her horror, Alex Kaspar... who in this timeline is calling himself the Chamberlain and is apparently her husband. 

In their attempts to solve the Vanishing Point event this all new, all different Vanguard has discovered the existence of the original Liam Lagrasse Robot and have created a clever plan to return the timeline to its original state. Unfortunately Alex Kaspar has reservations about the plan.

The question is now what he is going to do to stop them. Does a timeline shift really change the core of a man? Has Alex truly reformed or is he still suffering from...
