So here we have Murial who was a close friend of Matoaka's Father King Lee when he was alive, the Stoat-Woman serves the purpose of providing much insight on the History of Culture of the Eden Lands before the Plants inexplicably died forcing all the Humanimals there to leave. While King Lee ruled the Eden Lands for at least 200 Years, the beginning of the plants withering that forced him to start seeking a cure or at least answers was what caused him to meet Fossil who persuaded him to have a child with his Human-Half Sister Bitter Flower thus resulting in Matoaka, the Eden Lands withered and died completely during Matoaka's early foal-hood and she had never been there at this point in the story. (At least not physically one time Fossil teaching Matoaka some dream sorcery took their astral projections to the Eden Lands while they slept which had some...Interesting effects later on)
Nubs and Murial decided they would look for the Queen together, Murial had a map and found the way to the Bungalows, when they they got there they rang the doorbell.
It took a while, but after a few minutes the one who opened the door was...Superman?!
"I've been expecting you." The Man of Steel said "You must be here to see Matoaka."
The Stoat-Woman and the Rhino-Boy walked in to see Matoaka, her mane was frazzled and her eyelids were dark from lack of sleep she was worried about her dear Herd Brothers and Sisters and she had no way to contact them.
"Queen Matoaka." Said Murial as she curtsied "My name Murial, I was a very close friend of your Late Father, I was sent as a messenger in inform you, the Eden Lands the Ancestral Homeland of the Unicorns...Is starting to become Green again!"
Matoaka's eyes shot open "How do you know?" She asked
"Some of the original Eden Lands Shamans who are still around." Murial said "They saw in their dreams the Plants beginning to sprout again in the Kingdom, they immediately checked the internet satellite feed and indeed saw that where once was nothing but dry cracked earth is bits and pieces of green!"
Matoaka and Zander looked at Superman who had a smile on his face.
"You...Have so something to do with this don't you?" Matoaka said
"I know how worried you are about your herd." Superman said "And I've been here making sure you don't try to sneak out to follow them. But thinking about what you told me about your Father's kingdom...I started thinking about what could be done...Pamela Isley has come to Earth so I thought, maybe I could ask her to take a look...At the very least she may be able to determine how and why all the plants died, seems she found the solution."
Matoaka's sleepy eyes had tears running down them "Oh! Thank you Superman!" She said...And she promptly collapsed from sheer exsaustion
Meanwhile at Earth 6, Julia awoke bringing the awake number of Cubs to 3. Rye and Taylor needed more sleep than the other Cubs and were still in Dream Land.
"What time is it?" Julia asked
Caesar was the only Cub with a Digital Wristwatch, he looked at the time "6: 33." He said
"It's still so dark!" Julia said as she sniffed at the Enchanted Cooler and smelled something good was already in it.
"Maybe it's winter here." Zeb said looking at the gray cloudy sky "Because we're in the desert, it isn't snowy and cold just not blistering hot."
Julia opened the Cooler and saw a bag of potato chips and teleported into it, among other things, feeling hungry, the Hyena Cubs took out the bag of potato chips and opened it, and she lazily munched potato chips, her Hyena-Eyes spotted something in the dark, a rock moved to the side slightly, and out popped a familiar looking pointed snout.
"It's Eartha!" Julia exclaimed Zeb and Caesar looked in the same direction, though Eartha's black fur really blended in with the darkness, Eartha and conspicuous white patch around her mouth that shone like a beacon in the darkness. Following her was Ringo, while his back was black, his scarlet belly also seemed to shine like a beacon in the darkness, the three cubs thought about running over to the two Revenants until they saw a third creature come out of the hole, an Animals they could not recognize...At all.
"What is that thing?!" Caesar asked squinting at the strange black creature. "It almost looks like a Dinosaur...But Dinosaurs don't have Giant Cat Ears!"
The Black Creatures started communicating with Eartha and Ringo, but they were speaking in the Language of Animal Noises and gestures the Cubs couldn't understand.
"We better tell someone." Zeb said "Quickly, but quietly!"
The Zebra Filly than trotted over to the closest adult she could find (Which happened to be the Morning Glory Leader, Knuckles and Jackrabbit) and nudged him until he opened his eyes
^Huh?"^ The Mutant Hare said as he rubbed his eyes sleepily what is it
"We saw Eartha and Ringo!" Zeb said "But there with someone else! Some strange Animal we can't identify..." Zeb looked over her shoulder "The strange Animal is leading Eartha and Ringo away from us!"
Knuckles quickly rose to his feet, and awakened all the Morning Glories except for Olive (Who was being tightly grasped by her Turtle Beau Raphael) While Caesar and Julia woke Rye the Anteater and Taylor the Flamingo.
This would require extreme stealthiness as they knew these creatures had much better ears than Humans and this Hard Stone place was not an easy place to move quietly.
