kara, you shouldn't be so near the edge without a grown-up.
thank you, zaltar, but she has to obey the rules.
but where?
but the phantom zone is for criminals.
but zaltar---you founded the city! it's yours. we were all just refugees from krypton when you gathered us together and brought us here, to the inner dimension. you can't abandon us now. you have a responsibility to us!
how can you create beauty. with a selfish heart? the spiky insect-creature flies closer and closer around the little girl's head, buzzing angrily. her look of delight turns to fear. she tries to shoo the creature away. it flies off toward the thin membrane that encloses the city.
but the power source, zaltar.
but what will happen?
but kara, you are too young to go.
ever since we told you how your cousin superman was sent there as an infant, all you have wanted to do was visit this place.
what do your teachers think?
but they are such strange, unstable people.
