Abigor's Lair

"King Derek, Queen Odette, King Paul, and Queen Amanda have come back." Said Deidamia. "Yes, I know! You were supposed to bring them to me!" Said Abigor. "They stole my emerald key, my Powder of Life, they escaped with the shapeshifting girl I held prisoner, and they're headed this way!" Deidamia said. Abigor smirks. "You know?" Asked Deidamia. "I know everything. They're already here... but not for much longer." Abigor said.

All seemed lost for the two kings and queens, but Amanda isn't ready to give up. She closes her eyes, puts her arms out straight like a zombie, spins around a few times, then walks as if she's sleepwalking. "What's she doing?" Asked Paul. "Maybe she's trying a different technique to find the right object." Said Derek.

Abigor's Lair

"Why didn't you just transform them all right away?" Deidamia asked. "It's more fun this way." Said Abigor. "But if they guess right and find out about Lyra..." Said Deidamia, but she gets cut off by an angry tone from Abigor. "Lyra?! You haven't let her escape as well?!" He asked as he stood up from his throne. "No." Deidamia said worriedly. Abigor composes himself and sits back down. "Then there's nothing to worry about." He said.

Amanda touches another object while her eyes are still closed, knocking down a blue diamond shaped ornament at the same time. "I'm so nervous. What if she guesses incorrectly?" Asked Odette. Derek comforts his wife.

Abigor's Lair

"Soon there'll be no one left who remembers Dreamvale, and I'll be the rightful ruler of Silverstone Castle." Abigor said. Deidamia smiles at those words.

Noticing the blue ornament, Amanda puts down the object she picked up and touches the other one instead. "Dreamvale!" She said. The ornament flashes and reveals Mariana. "Your Majesties!" She said with a smile. 

From his lair, Abigor fills with rage after hearing the heroes' success. "Smudge and blazes!" He said. 

In the other room Amanda's siblings and husband approach Mariana with smiles. "Mariana!" Said Amanda excitedly. She and her family take turns hugging the queen. "You were blue." Paul said. "What?" Said Mariana in a confused tone. "You were a blue ornament." Odette said. "I was?" Mariana asked. "Maybe people from Dreamvale turned into blue ornaments!" Derek said.

Abigor is getting really mad. "Fumes and furnaces!" He said. He throws his pipe and it explodes, causing a look of concern to appear on Deidamia's face.

Mariana helps the four heroes look around for more blue ornaments, until one catches her eye. "A-ha, it's blue!" She said. 

In the evil king's lair, he's angrier than ever. "You let her escape!" He yelled. Deidamia becomes frightened. 

Back in the room with the ornaments, Mariana approaches the heroes. "Queen Odette, try this one." She said. Odette touches the ornament. "Dreamvale!" She said. The ornament flashes and reveals Raisa, who's flabbergasted by what happened. "Raisa, it's you!" Said Paul with a smile.

"Petrified polymorphs!" Growled Abigor. 

Amanda turns to Raisa. "Look for blue ornaments, quick! We've still got Andrew, Sadie, and Puffin to find." She said. "Sure." Said Raisa. 

"You had her, and you let her escape!!!" Abigor yelled. "It wasn't my fault! If you'd given me a real army..." Said Deidamia, but she gets cut off. "I'll take care of you later!" Said Abigor angrily. He uses his powers to trap Deidamia in a cage before leaving her behind.
