light each world in different colours -emerald green, amethyst purple,
ruby red… But danger lurks beneath the surface. In the fiery lands under
the ocean bed, is imprisoned Shoon Ya's evil twin, the fearsome demon
Shaap Azur, just as powerful but All Bad. How much longer can Shoon Ya
keep him under control? Not too long. When Shaap Azur escapes, he seizes
