[edit]The Decepticon leader Cannibal Baron was eventually challenged by Sentinel EnN in the city of Doradus. Their battle was so intense that the entire torus state was blasted out of synch with the rest of the universe. According to legend, the city reappears every 10,000 vorns, with the two combatants still locked in their deadly duel. Ask Vector Prime, 2015/09/15
Notes
[edit]- Doradus takes its name from the mythical city of El Dorado while its Fountain of Energon is based on the Fountain of Youth.
