This article has a talk page!Professor creates a peephole to trap Ripto in another dimension. Robot butler destroys it. Professor sends Spyro off to locate some magical artifacts known as "Hearts" to send Ripto back. Spyro has to complete loads of quests to get them. Since a bunch of toddler dragons without their toy are more scary than the end of the world as they know it, for example.
