She begins to spread vines all over Popstar, ripping out pieces of land for her kingdom and preventing anyone from getting close enough to attack her.
Kirby and Dedede celebrate, but Sectonia merges with the Dreamstalk and turns into a giant flower-like monster. Queen Sectonia scolds Taranza for his failure, blasting at him with her staff that causes him to fly away from the tower before turning her sights on Kirby. Mistakenly believing King Dedede to be that hero, Taranza kidnapped him on the orders of Queen Sectonia, who wants to use the Dreamstalk to take over Dream Land. Taranza reveals that he has been working for Floralia's self-proclaimed Queen, the vespid-being Queen Sectonia, and that the Floralians planted the Dreamstalk in the hopes of summoning Dream Land's hero to their aid. After an intense fight, Kirby is able to defeat the king and free him of his brainwashing. When Kirby finally reaches Taranza, he attacks Kirby using a brainwashed King Dedede. After following Taranza throughout multiple regions, the adventure reaches its conclusion in Royal Road, the capital city of Floralia, the kingdom in the sky. Kirby gives chase, fighting Taranza’s minions along the way. Effortlessly, Taranza takes out the Waddle Dee guards and kidnaps a surprised King Dedede, carrying him up the Dreamstalk. Once he reaches the gates, however, Kirby notices a spider-like being named Taranza entering the castle. In the morning, a shocked Kirby heads to Castle Dedede, which has also been lifted by the vines.
While he is sleeping, a large seed falls from the clouds and lands nearby, creating the Dreamstalk that lifts Kirby’s house in the air.
