Our road to Plumeria wasn't a long one, as Glimmer, Bow, Adora and I got closer to the Kingdom, we saw children laughing and running around as the adults ate and chatted with each other. I never saw such a small kingdom, it almost seemed like a village, but who am I to compare? I'm a princess with no kingdom after all.

"Wow." I muttered, looking at the plants and touching them slightly, they were dry. "The queen didn't say anything about the plants dying." I said, turning to my friends. "I don't think she knows." Bow said as he stared at the Kingdom. "Wait, where's Adora?" Glimmer asked.

We turned as we heard a noise, and we looked up to see Adora, now transformed into She-Ra, causing Glimmer to look almost annoyed. "You gonna be She-Ra the entire time?" The princess asked. "I told Queen Angella I would, besides, people like me better as She-Ra." That's not true, but everyone has their own opinion.

Adora chuckled, getting my attention. "Could Adora do this?" She started to balance the carriage up and down on one arm, making me stare in amazement, my cheeks turning red. Bow ran his hand several times over my face, and I hid myself while he chuckled. "Hmhm. Yep. Very useful to our mission..." Glimmer muttered, glancing away annoyedly.

"Hey, guys. What is that?" The archer pointed to smoke coming from a location nearby. "Must be from the Horde." Adora said. "You're here!" We turned our gazes to a beautiful girl running towards us, she's so cute. "Princess Perfuma. I'm Commander Glimmer." Glimmer extended her arm but she only received flowers, Bow got a hat and she showered me with petals, a rose appearing on my left ear.

The Princess suddenly gasped, looking behind us to Adora, she was smiling so smugly at us. I bet she didn't even realize she was doing it, but again, we're talking about Adora.

"Oh, my. Everyone, come quick! It's-- Oh, it's-- It's--!" Princess Perfuma shouted in excitement as she ran to She-Ra. "Look! The universe has heard our pleas and sent the legendary She-Ra to help us save our home!" Adora looked at us and we gave her a thumbs up, she cleared her throat and put down the carriage.

"We heard about the blockade. We've come to help. We brought food and supplies for you." She looked like a puppy as she talked, making me snort a little bit along with Glimmer. Perfuma whimpered and cleaned her tears. "Welcome to Plumeria, She-Ra." The crowd approached her to welcome her.

"Um, Glimmer, what's happening?" Adora looked at us as she was being taken away by the civilians. "Come with me, I'll show you around. You're gonna love it."

I was the first one to follow Perfuma into her kingdom, her hair looked so soft and she emanated so much happiness. I love her! "Our people have lived here for thousands of years. We're known for our beautiful flowers, our majestic trees." Everything was dying when she wasn't around, making us look at each other worriedly.

"And this is the Heart-Blossom, the center of our kingdom, the source of all my magical powers." We looked around, this tree looked alive compared to the others. "At least this tree is fine. What happened to everything else?" Asked Bow. "We're going through a rough patch, but I'm sure the universe will right itself soon."
