Armed with the weapons we selected from Winona's shop, we embarked on our journey to the Twilight Caves to retrieve the first star. Winona, true to her botanical prowess, began adorning our airship with plants of various kinds, turning it into a floating garden.
"I'm Botakinetic," she explained, her eyes gleaming with a familial connection to nature that spanned generations.
With a skip in her step, Winona boarded the ship, leaving Lucio and me in awe of her abilities. My gaping jaw caught Lucio's attention, and he promptly nudged it back into place.

Lucio and I exchanged doubtful glances, struggling to comprehend the gravity of Winona's revelation.
"That's the queen you want to impress?" I whispered to Lucio, a hint of skepticism in my voice. "She doesn't seem like a fair ruler."
