Marco was curious about Mewni, and Star's magic wand. How the wand becomes the Butterfly's family heirloom? Discovering her best friend's curiosity, Star took Marco to the Grandma room, and told him about the histories and stories of the queens and...
"Moving on to the fifth queen of Mewni, who was the first Queen to travel through different dimensions!" Star excitingly pointed both her hand to the fifth queen's tapestry.
This queen almost resembled Star, but as a woman of contrasting beauty: black hair and amber also has golden crown cheekmarks. Her clothes were ragged and dirty rags, and wore dark-brown pants and boots. She has a golden crown with ruby encrusted gem. Her wand consists of a black hilt whose head is a winged crowned compass. She was standing in front of Hekapoo's red portal with her wand and dimensional scissors in her hands, and Glossaryck was besides her too.

Cosmica the Explorer "The magic blade that opens holes in the invisible borders before her. A prize for the untiring effort of queen Cosmica the Explorer."
Marco looked at the tapestry narrowly as he recognized something. "Oh, I remember that portal behind her. That was Hekapoo's portal!"
"Oh, I'll explain about that in her story later."
"And there's another queen who looks just like you, Star." Marco chuckled.
"Aw, come on, Marco, not all queens resembled me." Star laughed.
"But Urania looks like your mom." He pointed Urania's tapestry.
"In her queen style! Queens have to had their hair stand up. It's says in the guide book." She said.
So, how Cosmica became the first queen to travel different dimensions?"
"Glad you ask, Diaz. You see, Cosmica loved to listen on Glossaryck's story about infinite dimensions in the whole universe, and spent more time with her cousin, Pyxar, Lady Nixie's son. Those two were best friends and very close, much due to the coexistence of families, despite the problems of their mothers."
"I know how that feels, not that we have problem in the family, parents of each fight, kids are friends." Marco explained.
"Like Romeo and Juliet?" Star squealed.
"Uh... yeah, sort of. But Cosmica and Pyxar are cousins. They're different compare to Romeo and Juliet."
"Oh, I won't say that. Since they were best friends to each other, they spent a lot of time together reading books of the Butterfly castle library. When they spent time with each other for a long time, they ended up having romantic feelings for each other."
"SAY WHAT?!" Marco yelled with full volume, almost making the tapestries shaking in the room. "That's illegal! You can't be in love with your relative!"
"Well, what choice do they have? The two are the only friends they each have. Luckily for Cosmica and Pyxar, they were just sent to their rooms. Hemera declared that there was no punishment for the two, but Nixie wanted Cosmica to be punish. That's one of the reasons Nixie hated her sister and niece."
"So, what happened? They were forbidden to see each other again?"
"Instead of sending Pyxar and his family to different places, his and Cosmica's rooms are separated, so they could be guarded. When her 14th birthday came, Cosmica got her wand, and she can see Pyxar again! But still, with her wand in her hand, she has no interest of making her own spells. She missed Pyxar so much."
"Yeah, they were homesick. So what did she do?"
"You mean, what did Glossaryck do? He told Cosmica about dimensional scissors and Hekapoo, which Cosmica was interested on that. Fortunately, the Magic High Commission came to Mewni for the first time. Do you still remember them, right?"
"I only knew a few things about them, but I met them at your Song Day."
"Uh, yeah, forget the Song Day." Star blushed in embarrassement when Marco mentioned Song Day. She just hoped he will forget about the part of the song of her having a crush on him. "Anyway, since the Magic High Commission was now in Mewni, it was Cosmica's chance to get her own scissors as she blew Hekapoo's flame in the guest room, but Hekapoo tested her, just like what she did to you, Marco."
"It took me 16 years to get those scissors, but it was 8 minutes!"
"Well, too bad you didn't beat the record; Cosmica took it 10 years or 5 minutes to get her scissors. And for the first time, the Butterfly family has its own dimensional scissors. While she was hunting for Hekapoo for 10 years, she finally made her own spells, and trained of combat and defensive abilities. Then, Cosmica used her to visit Pyxar, and they traveled through different dimensions together. "
"Did their mothers ever find out?"
"Well, that happens when Hemera found out after Baby's..." Star didn't want to say that word so she spelled it out. "E-V-A-L-U-A-T-I-O-N. But that's not the problem anymore, Hemera respected her daughter and nephew's relationship."
"That's good enough." Marco said. "So, you told me in Hemera's story that her and Nixie's children were married?"
"I know what you said about relatives can't marry each other, but that law hasn't been made yet, so they got married. It was supposed to be the happiest day of their lives, until, the next day, their parents died."
"I know that part. So?"
"So, Cosmica and Pyxar were sad, but they tried to move on." Star continued. "But did you know that traveling through different dimensions isn't the only thing the Cosmica was known about her?"
"She's not?" Marco was confused. "What do you mean?"
"In the 100th year of mewnipendence, Cosmica released the Kingdom's new default currency in commemoration of the special date." The princess showed three coins from her small star shoulder bag. One of them is gold with a sun that has10 rays, the second one is silver with a crescent moon, and the last one was bronze with a star with tiny stars between the star's arm. "They became known as gold Suns, Solver Moons, and Copper Stars."
"Wow, these are interesting." Marco took hold of the coins as Star handed them to him.
"You know, if you want to buy something in Mewni, mom, dad, and I were going to give you some."
"Oh, no thank you, Star. I'm fine with that."
"Come on! Just take them as your coin collection."
Marco was quite embarrassed when Star gave him the coins, but it was like tokens of friendship, so he accepted them. "All right. So, are there more things about Cosmica?"
"The last thing I know about her that she discovered Quest Buy, where we bought cool stuffs. When she gave birth to her first born, her daughter, she didn't stop exploring other dimensions, but after giving birth to her fourth child, Cosmica knew that her time as an explorer had come to an end."
"So, that's it? She quitted after having four children?"
Star's smile turned to frown. "Yeah, that was it."
"So, what are the dimensions she visited?"
Star thought about it as she counted them with her fingers. Dimension of the Cats with Human Faces, Pixtopia, Time Plains, Candy Dimension, Dimension of Ants Clothes Eaters, Dimension Where It Always Snows, Earth..."
"She visited Earth?"
"Well, duh! That's her reputation; an explorer. Mom just told me that days ago. But lucky for her, there was her daughter, who inherited Cosmica's love for exploring, but not in dimensions."
