At age 13, Nagisa made a wish upon a star. She asked for many things, but none of them really mattered in the end. Truthfully, looking back, Nagisa just wanted to be happy.
Later that night, in her dreams, she woke in a destroyed landscape. Jagged rocks and chains surrounded her as a dark, foggy sky was all she could really see. The wind was dead, as dust spurned with every step she took. Walking, lost and scared, she was met with a Looming Figure of pure Darkness.
He introduced himself as the "Dark King." He said he had brought her here to save the balance of the universe. He was calling upon her to fight an entity known as the Queen of Light who wished to bring about the end of humanity as she has deemed them "evil." He asked her to find Seven Stones, known as the Prism Stones, trapped in the earth. He promised her that with these stones, they could restore the balance.
They could save the world.
Nagisa thought that was a weird freaking dream, but then things started to happen. Monster Attacks (what the flip are "Zakenna" ????), Fractures in reality, disasters, and everything that could only point to the end of the world. And then she got really sick powers she could use to try and stop everything, to try and find these stones or whatever (how is she even supposed to find them???).
Cure White doesn't help. Apparently, She's a cold, calculating warrior working for the Queen of light. Nagisa has tried so many times to reason with her but nothing has worked. She always just stares at her with that cold, hateful look in her eyes. Every time Nagisa tried to talk to her, it was either silence or harsh words. What even made her like this? What made her want to support something so horrible? Nagisa can't understand her.
The world is where her friends are. Nagisa can't give up on it. It's where her Mom is, her Dad, Ryouta, Shiho, Rina, and even Honoka.
Honoka becoming her friend was not something she saw coming, but the girl was always so sweet, even when Nagisa was too stressed out of her mind to be a good friend. Honestly, Nagisa might even say that the only reason she's made it so far is because of this girl.
So, Nagisa cannot lose. She will stop the Queen of Light. She will stop Cure White.
At age 12, Honoka made a wish upon a star. She asked for someone, one person, who would stay in her life. Honoka had been abandoned over and over again. All she wanted was a friend. Someone who would make her happy.
Later that night, in her dreams, she woke to a wonderful garden. Blooms of every size, light fractals surrounding her in a way that seemed to be possible only in theory, wind blowing lightly as the sun shone down on her. Well, upon closer look, the Sun was more Human than Usual.
The being of Light before her introduced herself as the "Queen of Light." She told Honoka that she needed her to fight the forces of Entropy, The "Dark King," to stop the forces that work to destroy the balance of the universe. She said Honoka needed to find 7 stones, known as the Prism stones, to ensure that Balance would be restored.
When Honoka woke up, she had assumed it was simply a fluke, her mind playing tricks on her. Although dreams may have reasons, this one was less abstract and more directly prophetic about the supernatural, which made little sense to her.
And then the world started to end. Things fell apart, fact was little more than a suggestion, and even monsters appeared. Though, given she received the power to fight back, not all was lost. In fact, she gained quite a bit. There was so much more to learn, and so many opportunities to try.
She even had her wish come true. Honoka cannot imagine a world without Nagisa in it anymore. That girl has brought so much to her limited horizons. Honestly, Honoka would say the main thing keeping her going was Nagisa.
And that's why she could never fall for Cure Black's tricks. The Queen of light had warned her about the girl, the way she lies and guilt trips you. She blames you for her sins, and cries that Honoka is truly evil. If it is evil to love her world, to love her friends, to love Nagisa, then evil she shall be. Honoka can't understand why Cure Black cannot see the beauty of this world, why she fights and lies so much. Part of Honoka wishes she could understand the girl, but it would do nothing but make her angry.
She doesn't need to understand Cure Black to know she has to stop her. Has to stop the Dark King. Honoka will protect her world. Honoka will protect her love.
Humanity is a plague that does not know it's place.
The Queen of Light and the Dark King are simply two sides of the same coin.
They do what they must to keep the balance of our world.
If they must end Humanity, then they must.
But, if they wish to end humanity, the must get rid of it's shield and sword.
They must get rid of the source of it's power.
Killing two birds with one stone is a silly and cruel phase their kind had come up with. The King and Queen decided to make them kill each other instead.
AKA Enemies to Lovers Nagihono in the sense that the Queen of Light and the Dark King were working together the entire time, and they were being played like freaking fiddles to almost bring about the end of the world.
