The eels were watching the two hedgehog brothers and Arthur comforted Princess Aleena. "What the fools don't know is that the prince is my prisoner." said Stella. "My Lady, something happened while you were being busy and while we were spying on the princess." said the 1st eel. "What is it this time?" Stella asked the eels. "The prisoner may have took the keys while we weren't here and...he escaped!" shouted the 2nd eel. "WHAT!?" Stella kept her nephew in a prison far from where she resides. Her nephew never saw her true face or true form. When she would to see him, she always used a disguise appearing as a different merhog with a different voice. She was planning to use him as her tool.
"It's not like Athens is not important to the plan anyway and Sheila you're not supposed to be here!" Stella shouted at Sheila who is the younger sister of Stella and Athena. She's a Sea Witch too except she has fins instead of tentacles and is a good sea witch unlike Stella. "Sorry, Sis. I came here to get my spell book back that I left here on accident." said Sheila. Stella gives Sheila the book with her tentacles. "Here's your book. now get out!" shouted Stella. Sheila immediately left Stella's lair as she soon swam back to the kingdom of Atlantica with her spell book. "Sheila, I'm surprised to see you again and what brings you here this time?" asked the Sea King. "I got my spell book back and maybe I can find a spell to bring Athena back." said Sheila.
"I don't want to take such a dangerous risk through those forbidden arts as there's always a price to pay for using them. Even my trident doesn't have that ability to resurrect a person, otherwise I'd have brought back my wife with it years ago." the Sea King told Sheila. "It's a risk but if I can pull it off successfully Athena will be back to life. I'll keep studying the spell and see what ingredients I need to make it work." said Sheila. "Okay, Sheila. If you know what you're doing please be careful. Still I rather you'd consider another alternative that doesn't involve spells of any sort seeing how I don't approve of them. I seriously hope you take into consideration to find another means that doesn't involved any spells or forbidden arts." said the Sea King. "Yes my king. I might be a witch but I'm not a heartless person like Stella." Sheila said to King Leonardo before she left to figure out a new way to bring Athena back.
Sheila was looking through her book to find any revival spells that wouldn't be too dangerous until she found a potion of revival in the book. "When you give a deceased merfolk the potion they have to drink it and once it's consumed they'll be back to life but with legs. That won't work. And the trident would cancel out that potion's effects if the king were to try to give Athena her fins back. I wonder if there's something outside of potions and spell books that can be used. That way, it won't conflict with the trident's power. I'll figure it out soon I just gotta keep looking until I find something." Sheila said to herself.
Sheila recalled stories of an ancient entity that had the ability to grant one wish. But the wish had to be pure and unselfish in nature and whatever the entity requested, the one asking the wish must fulfill it without fail. 'You don't get something for nothing' was its principle. "That could work and maybe I could ask the entity to bring Athena back to life." Sheila said to herself. Sheila's only dilemma was she didn't know which entity that was as she only heard stories. She knew it would be quite a while before find out which one specifically the legend talked about.
