Plot
In the universe to which she was banished by “Jenny Everywhere” using the Magic Sword, Armagedda is still living the life of a farm animal, mulling over her fate, though she is more disturbed by the idea that the Cosmic Order is unable to enact its will in Reality Z-25 31-H without her than about her own comfort. Suddenly, a mysterious hooded rider arrives out of nowhere and offers Armagedda to return her to her full glory if she'll participate in the rider's plans. Armagedda defiantly refuses, and “Evil Cloak” rides off on her stolen horse, assuring Armagedda that she will back to see if she's changed her mind.
