Through life one has been told to imagine the greater things for themselves. Some may be good, while some may not however it all boils down to what you are rewarded in the end. It has been proven time and again those who conjure benign thoughts about themselves and other will always go further in life than those who posses malevolent thoughts. With pure thoughts you are able to grasp so much more in life and take your life so much further. However, those who cling onto evil thoughts will always fall short of those with pure thoughts.

Through determination, strong of mind, and inspiration given by friends, Alyss Heart is capable of overthrowing her Aunt Redd with the exceptional skills of White Imagination. Her aunt, who used Black Imagination, had succeeded in overthrowing the Queendom with her malevolence: However in the end Alyss overcomes Redd and defeats her, bringing peace to the Queendom once again. As Alyss was being cast away into Earth during the invasion of Redd, she is given her first impact of inspiration from Hatter Madigan, at the Pool of Tears.

With her determination, strength of mind, and support from her friends she was able to finally face Redd on equal ground. She stood in from of her malevolent aunt and shouted "I've finished running from you Redd, it's your turn to run!"
