Plot

Darak explains that he was sent on a mission to capture a comet in their space, which has a large cashew of ice, so they can use it for their own reserves, and because they know the Zertonians are having a water crisis right now.

On the way, Darak has a vision that shows that the Agorrians and Zertonians world's are connected, and reveals that they look alike, and that they broke off some time. To stop an upcoming disaster, they must come together again...

Solila believes this vision was sent from Zerta, and both believe it, due to their similar appearances.

Over the next couple of weeks, the duo fix up a small ship from the wreckage of their vessels, and manage to leave the planet, though it doesn't have enough power to drive itself, and they send out a distress call to hopefully get rescued.

After a few days, they are captured by a ship disguised as an asteroid. Inside they are met by their captor, a Skuxxoid....

Notes

• Unless it is just symbolic, it appears that two.planets, the Agorrian and Zertonian homeworlds, merged into a structure, the Sacred Ring, which surrounds what looks like a black hole (most likely the eponymous void)
• Darak is revealed to be the son of a Minister, who apparently has a bad relationship with his father. 
• Darak's ship is named as the Jump Jet, with Solila's being the Star Wing.
• It's unconfirmed, but Solila believes that the voice Darak heard during his mission is a god named Zerta, which based in the name is likely a Zertonian specific deity.
• The alien at the end of this issue is a Skuxxoid, a species from the Transformers G1 series' third season. His ship is a Rockeroid, which disguises itself as an asteroid, as seen in this issue.
