Original version
This level begins on the snowy top of Mystical Pique, where there are four Teensies and the five nymphs. The Teensies go around the middle nymph, Helena Handbasket, repeatedly bowing, while she says a few words, activating the nearby gate. Then, Rayman and his friends go through the gate, getting taken up into the clouds in a ball of light. Up in the clouds, it is very stormy. The Magician is here, and if the players jump on his hat, he warns them that it is dangerous and not to proceed. The heroes continue anyway, and past a few clouds shooting out lightning, they reach the mosquitoes, which they ride on for the rest of the level.
As the team rides the mosquitoes, they must avoid clouds with lightning shooting between them at first, and then an airship shows up in the background. It shoots helicopter bombs into the foreground. The heroes and the mosquitoes must avoid these, small fly enemies, and more clouds shooting lightning. After quite a while, large fly enemies show up, as well. As the team goes through this area, strange structures can be seen in the background, some quite large. There appears to be more structures as the team progresses further into the level, with the largest being at the end. Eventually the heroes reach an area with pipe-like structures all around. Here, they must face turrets and machines that shoot electricity between each other in addition to the small and large flies. After a while, they must avoid red missiles, as well. Right after this, the team is able to get off the mosquitoes, break open an Electoon cage, and finish the level. They will then pose on the photoboard as the Magician waits for the total amount of Lums that were collected.
