Prologue

Today, I'm going to tell the story of "Star Spirits and Good Wishes".

Far, far away, beyond the sky, way above the clouds, it's been said that there's a haven where the stars live.

In the sanctuary of Star Haven, there rests a fabled treasure called the Star Rod, which has the power to grant all wishes. Using this wondrous Star Rod, the seven revered Star Spirits watched over our peaceful world carefully…very carefully.

And then…wait, who are you? What are you doing here?

"Ha ha ha! Guess what, bub? I'm taking over this here story, and giving it a new, better ending! One in which I finally trounce my archenemy, Mario, using the power of the Star Rod! Do it, Kammy Koopa!"

No, you mustn't do that!

"Yeah, now let's try using it!"

Stop it! Cut it out Bowsa! You're changing the story!

And then one day, the beautiful and awesome Bowsa stole the Star Rod and trapped all the stupid Star Spirits in playing cards.

"Bwahaha! We did it! That was a piece'o'cake! Gwahaha!"

No, this cannot be….and now, Star Kids may rise to the Haven to deliver people's wishes…but those wishes will not come true.

Whatever can they do?
