One of Asha’s friends, Simon, is revealed to be the one who sold her out to Magnifico, in hopes that his wish to become a knight would be granted. Despite Amaya’s pleas, he turns to a book of forbidden dark magic to maintain his position of power as his subjects begin to doubt his way of ruling. Distraught, she makes her own wish on a star, and to her surprise, the star descends from the sky in the form of an anthropomorphic star of light, which Asha names Star. Asha realizes Magnifico never intends to return the ungranted wishes to their owners, and when she questions his methods, Magnifico refuses to accept her apprenticeship. Having studied sorcery, Magnifico is able to grant the greatest desires of his subjects, but they have to give up the memory of their wishes to be sealed away and protected by the king until he can grant them.
Magnifico’s magic turns against him and traps him inside his staff’s mirror, while the citizens regain their sealed wishes with a newfound appreciation of pursuing them. Asha attempts to stop him but is easily overpowered as Magnifico blocks out the sky and immobilizes the citizens, preventing them from wishing on stars. Corrupted by the dark magic, Magnifico intends to use Star’s magic and Rosas’s wishes to increase his own power, forcing Sabino and Sakina to flee to a nearby island while Asha, Star, and Valentino stay behind to free the citizens’ wishes.
