[[File:Kaza in The Danger, the Diamond, and the Dowager.png|thumb|right|300px|Kaza sips tea as a bemused [[George Wimberly|Wimberly]] looks on. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Danger, the Diamond, and the Dowager (comic story)|The Danger, the Diamond, and the Dowager]]'')]]Some time later, [[Catherine Maxwell]], alias [[Nula]], sent word that she was returning to [[the Naked Jungle]]. The [[Commissioner Smedley|Commissioner]] welcomed her at the air strip with [[Wimberly]], and [[Kaza (Reality Z-25 31-H)|Kaza]] and Gwenna also made a surprise appearance, amused to meet their predecessor as hero of the Burandan jungle and to learn about the Commissioner's adventurous past. Everyone went back to Kaza and Gwenna's treehouse for tea, where Nula revealed that she had come to [[Buranda]] to return [[Solomon's Diamond]] to the [[Koranzi]], and not simply to see old friends again. The following night, the village was set aflame by three airships commanded by terrorist [[the Skull (Reality Z-25 31-H)|the Skull]]; Kaza and Gwenna, who had been having a hard time going to sleep due to Kaza's anxieties about the Diamond, which he had felt possessed some supernatural power, went out on their balcony as they heard the airships flying over, but were then held at gunpoint by the Skull himself. He took them prisoners, claiming that they would bear witness to his “great triumph”. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Danger, the Diamond, and the Dowager (comic story)|The Danger, the Diamond, and the Dowager]]'') While he had Kaza placed in the hold of the tank he was using to travel through the jungle, he took Gwenna in his cabin with him, allowing him to gloat to her at length about his plan. He revealed to her that the Diamond was actually the [[Philosopher's Stone (Reality Z-25 31-H)|Philosopher's Stone]], the key to wondrous powers of immortality and the creation of gold; after awakening its power, he hoped to use it to allow his cult to take over the world and effect the white-supremacist “social reordering” of which he dreamed.

Hearing the commotion, Gwenna took the Skull by surprise with a kick to the jaw and knocked him out. As the tank veered out of control and into a tree, the jungle-dwellers hopped to safety and made their own way to the Temple, where the Skull's agents [[Professor Morag]] and Mitchell had just taken their prisoners who had survived the fire, including Nula, [[Commissioner Smedley|Smedley]], [[George Wimberley|Wimberley]] and [[Kiana]].
