"Then your only way back, is through Queen Mal, ruler of this land.  You'll have to convince her that you're better suited to rule than your mother.  But if you even try to talk to Queen Mal before you're ready, she will defeat you.  She will own you body and soul and you'll beg for the release of death, you'll crave the day when you're no more than a ghostly apparition."<br/><br/>Master Owl nods, "So you'd better gain power, but keep in mind your ultimate goal.  It's very easy to simply slip away into the lust and power of this place."
