Michelle, his twin, disagreed. "I don't think so Mike"
Irene, the third-born, added, "Yeah she's been there multiple times already and seems to have grown bored of it."

With that, Michael crossed the location off the map, and they continued to ponder Daphne's potential whereabouts.

As frustration mounted, Ivan, suggested, "Why don't we have the guards search everywhere? We're not making much progress here."

"We will but first we need to set our priorities first for faster results", his elder brother responded dismissing his suggestion.

They had methodically analyzed the map, crossing off places they believed Daphne was unlikely to be. Terrestria was among the first locations eliminated, as they couldn't fathom the possibility of her venturing there.

"Or how about Maderia?", Irene suggested. "Yeah let's check that", Michael agreed.

"What of Avilor?", Michelle asked. "Wait isn't that were your fiancé is from", Irene teased. Michelle nodded shyly. "I just miss him, just a little". The younger twins smiled teasingly.

Michael cleared his throat then said, "I understand you Irene, I also miss my wife already".
"I guess what they said is true, love knows no boundaries". Ivan thoughtfully said.

"Don't act like you're not dating Ivan", Irene exposed him. "No, I'm not", he quickly denied.

"Then why are you always with that pink haired girl, what's her name again?", Irene asked.

"Oh then if that's the way it is then I could also say you're dating my friend Ron", Ivan retaliated.

"What, why would you think that",she laughed. "We barely even talk or walk together".

"You think I don't see the way you look at him, and use every opportunity you see him to say hi, I don't remember the last time you even said that to me". Ivan said back.

"That's cause we live together, give me a break Ive. Oh I remember now, her name is Evie right",Irene said to get back at him.

The eldest pair of twins looked at their 19 year old siblings in hopelessness. They just loved to bicker unlike them who rarely did. They guessed some twins are just different.

"Ok that's enough guys let's focus on searching for our sister that way everyone can get back to their loved ones", Michael interrupted their argument.

"We're sorry brother". They stared at each other with annoyance.

In a world where evils ruled, an old woman who seemed to be the queen sat quietly in a dark pool. Slowly she opened her eyes and smiled evilly at the person who had just entered her lair.

It was one of her messengers whose faces were always covered with their hood. "You have any good news for me?",she inquired.

"I don't, my Queen", the dark robed guy replied. "Fortunately I have some bad news". Queen Rykah said without hurry, "Tell me about it". She got out of the pool and put on her dark robe.

"The princess has taken the bait, she's currently in Terrestria".
"That's interesting, how did she come to be in Terrestria?", the queen asked in shock. "I'm sorry but I have no idea my queen", he replied.

The queen with a wave of hand said,"Nevermind, what's more important is we can finally lay out our plans now that she's there. I must say she's not that good as I thought, going against her parent".

"She's really fit to be queen. Hahaha, I've never been more proud", she suddenly cackled.

Apparently the current queen had no heir due to her barrenness and was already in her years.
