Izzy and Misty are enjoying a mud bath at Bridlewood Spog when a group of Breezies appears followed by Violette Rainbow. They follow the Breezies together and witness the "Swirlpool Starlight" ceremony, held every ten years by the Breezies. During the event, they combine their magic, offering onlookers a glimpse into their futures.
After stepping into the magic Swirlpool, Violette envisions a lush, green Bridlewood with herself as a gardener. When Izzy steps into the Swirlpool, the magic tells her that her heart glows with the creative gifts and her most magical creations are still ahead, while showing Izzy previews of her creation, inspiring her with ideas. While Misty, initially apprehensive due to her past as Opaline's servant, is frightened and leaves the Swirlpool after being confronted by her past.
