Chapter Notes

 * Nico Robin discovers Shandora.
 * The chapter title "Suite", like many other Skypiean chapters, is a musical term that describes what happens in the chapter. There are many different types of suites, but the one that fits the best is the precisely defined suite from the Baroque era. This suite is a set of musical pieces accompanied by dances and is almost always preceded by an overture (one of the early chapters is named overture). The title "Suite" is most likely referring to the chaotic battle that takes up the bulk of this chapter which is poetically a dance.
