"Every hundred years, a comet appears in the skies above the Mushroom Kingdom. The comet was so large one year. It filled the skies and sent countless shooting stars raining down. The Toads brought the shooting stars to the castle, where they became a great Power Star. It should have been a very happy time for the citizens of the Mushroom Kingdom. That was the night of the Star Festival, held once every hundred years to celebrate the comet"
