When Sailor Moon gets to Nehelenia on the floating platform, she sees that Queen Nehelenia's aged appearance as a result of Chibiusa's use of the Golden Crystal. Nehelenia explains that she was once queen of an asteroid and she was worshiped for her beauty by her people until she asked her dream mirror if she would stay beautiful forever. But upon seeing the ugly, old woman she would become, Nehelenia consumed her servants' Dream Mirrors, turning them into Lemures while retaining her youth and beauty, and was consequently sealed away by Queen Serenity. With Sailor Moon pities her, an infuriated Nehelenia throws Chibiusa over the edge of the platform. Sailor Moon dives after her and transforms into Princess Serenity; she catches up to Chibiusa, awakens her, and together they use the Golden Crystal to land safely on Earth. At that time, Nehelenia reseals herself back into the mirror to regain her beauty as it flies off. Chibiusa says goodbye to Helios, who returns to his homeworld of Elysion, and says that she will see him in her dreams. | |||||||||
