Alyssa scowled. "Your crown? A quest for your crown? "
Queen Angelica frowned. As if she was offended by how Alyssa had talked to her.
"Yes. My crown." Queen Angelica repeated the words coldly.
Alyssa sighed. She didn't want to do quests. They might be too risky.
"Fine," Alyssa said after a minute. "I'll do that quest to find your crown."
The queen didn't look surprised. But she turned to Enna and Zalina. "I suppose you two know why my crown's been missing?"
Enna frowned. "It's uh.... been stolen I guess?"
"Yes, that's right."
"What places do we have to go to, exactly?" Zalina asked.
Queen Angelica pursed her lips. Then, she frowned. "I thought you already know where to go? The Green Sea and The Diamond Mountain?"
Alyssa's heart tingled. The Diamond Mountain? The Green Sea? She's heard about those places before. She tried to think why they should go there.
"How do we find those places?" Alyssa asked.
Queen Angelica stared at Alyssa. "It's simple. I don't suppose Enna and Zalina have told you about it?"
Alyssa thought for a second. The voice that sounded like Siri in the taxi earlier?
"Uh, they haven't mentioned to me yet." Alyssa replied.
Queen Angelica frowned. Alyssa thought she must've been tired of explaining things to Alyssa that Enna and Zalina were supposed to explain.
"Enna and Zalina will explain to you later." Queen Angelica decided. "Now, come on. You better prepare for your quest."

Alyssa soon realized she hasn't packed her things for going to this castle.
She guessed she must've been too sleepy to pack her things up. She was also in a hurry. She asked her friends about it.
Enna shrugged. "You'll get provided soon enough. Besides, I don't really see that much packing in this quest. All we have to do is retrieve Queen Angelica's crown. Nothing risky about it. I guess we'll have to pack our wands."
She was sitting on Alyssa's bed in her room.
She grabbed the purple metallic stick Alyssa had seen before. This time, she was not wearing her purple metallic ribbon.
Alyssa fixed her eyes on Enna's wand. "How do we get our wands?"
Enna looked up. "Huh? Oh, you get the wand when you'd stay in the castle long enough. Sometimes, you'd do something good for Queen Angelica so you would get it." she explained.
Alyssa sat next to her. "Not if you do a quest or something?"
Enna knitted her eyebrows. "I'm really not sure about that. I just got mine because I've stayed here long enough. But... you'll get your wand eventually."
Zalina opened the door of Alyssa's room.
"Are you guys done packing?"
Enna frowned. "I don't really suppose you should pack that much stuff. We'll probably only be out for a day. Not a whole week."
"Well, come on. I hope you already got the Golden Taxi ready, Enna."
Enna's eyes widened. "Shoot, I forgot about that! Oh, jeez."
