Chapter 1: Chapter 1
"This is the Mushroom Kingdom, and you are not allowed to enter."
The words echoed in Mario's mind as he stared at the Castle of Illusion' before him. It was unlike anything he had ever seen before. The walls were made of what seemed to be crystal, and the arched windows were so high that birds couldn't perch in them.The floors were covered in a carpet so thick that it made the place look like a giant palace. It was a place where dreams and wishes came true if you had the money. And right now, that was all that mattered to Mario. He had enough money to buy the castle and all the lands in the kingdom. The problem was, he had no idea how to get there.
