The Princess Twins of Gemina are fraternal twin daughters born to Queen Goodfey and her late first husband King Goodfey fifteen years prior to the show. As King Goodfey was off saving his people from evil, his wife and queen was left to deliver their children.
Joyful at being "doubly blessed" she soon had her memory wiped by Nova Terron, who come, if reluctantly, to take her youngest twin daughter from her. This was due to a prophecy that foretold invertible annihilation to all of Gemina.
When the twin stars unite
The spectral beast will take flight
Its roars will herald a new dark age
And the realm will be
Purged by the dragon's rage
The elder twin was named Arkayna, whereas the youngest was taken before Queen Goodfey had the chance to name her. As such she was later adopted by another family from a remote village, who named her Zarya. To further protect the younger twin, she was switched with another orphaned girl, Proxima, for right being next to her when they were toddlers on her second starday.Trivia[]
