  There's Monkey's Paw wishes, and then there's whatever the hell Nova was doing in Air Riders.

  My guess as to why Meta Knight&apos;s wish was granted in a straight way even under the &quot;Nova is evil&quot; interpretation, is because Nova fully expected Galacta Knight to win.<br>Star Dream mentions how the battle might destroy a planet or 2 when it summons galacta again, he has the reputation of the strongest in the galaxy, and it wouldn&apos;t be a stretch to assume he would want some form of retribution for being sealed away. If Galacta wins, there&apos;s now a very furious unstoppable warrior roaming the galaxy freely.

  one thing to note, galacta knight is said to be capable of destroying planets. I believe that meta knight&apos;s wish wasn&apos;t corrupted, because granting it honestly would have destroyed the planet

  I&apos;ve always interpreted Zorah&apos;s seemingly innocent wish of being able to move as being tainted by a strong hatred for the life it was stuck with. I mean it wouldn&apos;t be too farfetched to assume Zorah hated life and hated being subjected to it&apos;s existence. Even if he never had the particular desire to end all of popstar specifically, perhaps it was the hatred he had that led to Nova&apos;s interpretation of his wish into something world ending. Maybe something like &quot;okay I hear you, you want to move. But I also see you hate your life so I&apos;ll make it so you destroy the planet once you&apos;re capable of moving&quot;<br><br>Of course without in game lore descriptions, we lack the information to confirm or reject any theories

  Kirby Air riders completely recontextualised everything about Nova is Super star.<br><br>Or Sakurai wasn’t thinking of the lore implications at all and just thought it was cool.

  Relevant points I&apos;d like to add:<br> 1. Nova&apos;s somewhat incomplete appearance suggests it can travel across the multiverse and visit different timelines.<br> 2. No Clockwork Star can magically create things; there&apos;s a whole manufacturing process involved, which diminishes much of the mystique it once possessed.<br> 3. When Nova and Lord Starcutter are reconstructed, a type of beam or electricity appears that reassembles these machines. This same phenomenon occurs in portals created by the Ancients. In Forgotten Land, the Lightron Company is specifically mentioned as working in electrology. <br>4. Wondaria is more relevant than many realize. The fact that this park&apos;s symbol is a globe and features adorable creatures speaks volumes about them, as does their fascination with astrology. This would explain why many seemingly cute objects possess enormous destructive potential and have names related to cosmic phenomena. And just as Halcandra is full of globes, the Halcans liked to build things in reference to that park, perhaps because it was their hope when they traveled to &quot;A New World&quot;<br>5. Nova is related to dreams, and everything connected to them is star-shaped, the same star-shaped elements that create the ship he uses to fight Nova. This is one of the four materials that make up the Kirby multiverse. The twinkling stars appear when you defeat Astral Void and Elfilis. Perhaps Nova was created from the core of similar beings in a primordial state. <br>6. I believe Nova isn&apos;t inherently evil; he isn&apos;t conditioned by his programming, which was created by the Ancients. This civilization is linked to large-scale armed conflicts, as evidenced by the robots in the HR series and, above all, the Master Crown, an object that collects the evil and obsessions of previous rulers. Kumazaki mentioned on Miiverse that Haltmann was aware that Star Dream consumed users&apos; memories, which is why it was deactivated.<br> I&apos;m fascinated by this lore and how things from the past can be recontextualized. I also have a channel talking about lore, but in Spanish. I hope to see your responses!

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHUE9BSqKLI&amp;t=164">2:44</a> I don&apos;t think &quot;True Form&quot; necessarily means that Marx always naturally had access to that form. Nova&apos;s power may have unlocked latent powers within Marx, greatly magnified existing abilities, or even granted entirely new powers that more truly reflect who Marx is in his heart (and/or how Marx views himself). Marx wouldn&apos;t even need great magical power to start a fight with the Sun &amp; Moon either – I always assumed that he had simply kickstarted a petty feud between them over who was better or something.
