The long road from Tehran, Iran to Baku, Azerbaijan stretches a thousand kilometers across the unremittingly barren steppes of western Asia, filled with ancient intrigue, treachery, mystery, and let's be honest, just a lot of boredom and "are we there yet"s. Especially when you're trying to survive a 12-hour bus ride with two Taliban fighters, a Ukrainian ex-dictator, a Chinese anthropology professor, and a cute Pallas's cat who may or may not want to kill you.

Leiaou was a spunky anime girl from the Ryukyu Islands, with multiple bounties on her head from various governments, including Kazakhstan. It's a long story. Basically, she knew too much about Kazakhstan's plot to manipulate the FIFA World Cup bidding process, and the tyrannical Pallas's cats covertly puppeting the Kazakh government knew she had to be silenced.

"I'm sorry! Don't take me to prison!" Zhandos shrieked, so the Kazakh agents prepared to stuff a dead frog into his throat to silence his screaming. Zhandos managed to squeeze in one final yelp, "And please don't only serve me mayonnaise-flavored ice cream in prison!"
And as for our plucky heroine Leiaou? She slyly slipped away from all this chaos, off to another adventure elsewhere—leaving behind nothing but fond memories of that dusty rode heading north towards a mythical land known only as... Baku, Azerbaijan.
