"I'll explain the best I can." Coral starts, "Before the Octo Canyon incident, you know, the one where you overused your power, Hope was actually octonapped by the Sanitized Octarians. We didn't know at the time that she was two halves of one person, it's only when we saw who was behind the octonapping that we found out. That was actually Hope's other half who had done this, the half who goes by the name of Wish. Unlike Hope, Wish is actually a lot bigger than all of us, imagine having to fight an Octoling whose size was probably quadruple than your size, probably even more. We are lucky DJ Octavio never leaves his octopus form. Kelp and I, alongside many others, would've been doomed otherwise."
"It was actually only after we imprisoned Wish that we found out he's half of Hope." Kelp finishes Coral's explanation.
