The sound of Hardy Har Har laughing was one the world thought would never hear.
The hyena was so depressive and pessimistic (and seeing his life, hard to blame him), he couldn't even smile longer than one second before the pain of his underdeveloped cheek muscles made him stop.
He thought that nothing could make his life better, that nothing could bring back joy and hope to his soul, that nothing could make him able to laugh...

It took a mysterious magic "star" that filled him with infinite power, but his life finally became much better.
The puny hyena, now capable of turning into the most humongous, strongest, mightiest titan in existence, felt optimistic and happy anew.
Every time he outgrew his universe, his revived smile shone brighter than the entire multiverse, and his ressurected laughter filled the omniverse.

He had been wrong.
And he never had been so glad of it!
