"Actually, kinda the opposite of that. Alright. Super speed history lesson cause I am bored of telling it. Twenty years ago, King Beast and Queen Belle rounded up every villain, including the ones who had been dead, healed them up and dumped them on the Isle Of The Lost. A magical barrier went up keeping them all from their powers and left them to their own devices. blah blah blah, fast forwarding to the interesting part. You know, the part where me and my friends enter the picture. Ben's folks, King Beast and Queen Belle, yes them again. They decided they wanted to retire and sixteen is plenty old enough for Ben to become king. So for Ben's first official act, a week before he became king officially, he tried an experiment. Four of us from the Isle, kids of the worst of the worst villains. Bring us to Auradon, the mainland where they have magic and clean water and. food without mold and all that, and see if we could become goody goodie good guys. For the record? Should not have worked. Like at all."

She shook her head. "Our folks only agreed to send us because they had an evil scheme. And they needed us out there to pull it off. And you know what? We almost did. This close to grabbing the magic wand, the crown, everything. Had Ben been... well.... even a little less Ben, we would have. But he stopped us, convinced us we could stay on Auradon if we just gave back the wand. Convinced us that despite everything, we wanted to. So we chose good. Trounced my mom, foiled the villain’s plans, tea and cake all around. A year or two of jumping from crisis to crisis and then one day Genie's daughter granted some stupid wish, and she and Merlin tried to fix it at the same time.. next thing we know, most of Auradon and the Isle are empty. Poof. Almost no people. But slowly people have been reappearing. Both sides, Auradon and Isle. My guess given the people in Auradon is that the old rules are in play. Clearly evil goes to the Isle, clearly good goes to Auradon. And me... I just went where I'd been last. Which was Auradon as it turns out."
