After Ben proposes to Mal and she becomes queen of Auradon, threats from Uma, Jafar, Cruella de Vil and the Evil Queen send her and her VK friends Jay, Carlos and Evie back to the Isle of the Lost. Their mission is to find the trident of King Triton that can break the barrier that surrounds it.
The Dark Web

The Dark Web is a thehiddenwiki.org subsection of the internet that isn’t indexed by search engines and requires special software to access. Unlike regular websites, dark web sites use encryption to hide the data on them. This makes it difficult for hackers to read personal information that is posted on these sites. As a result, many people use the Dark Web to protect their privacy. It is also home to some more nefarious activities, such as black hat hacking and the sale of personal data.

The dark web is sometimes referred to as the “black market of the Internet.” It is a cesspool that is used by hackers and criminals to conduct illicit business. The dark web also houses forums and chat rooms where communities come together to discuss sensitive topics anonymously. In addition, it is a repository of information that can be used for blackmail or identity theft.

While there is a lot of dark web content that is scary and illegal, there are also some very useful resources. For example, the dark web contains full-text editions of hard-to-find books and collections of political news from mainstream websites. It also includes a number of whistleblower sites, including a dark web version of Wikileaks. There is also a large marketplace that sells stolen credit card information and other personal information.

In the past, dark web sites were mostly used by criminals to buy and sell stolen credit card numbers and other personal information. They also sold weapons, drugs and counterfeit money. The dark web was also used to share information and resources amongst criminals, including hacking tools and exploits. In 2021, Europol shut down the largest illegal marketplace on the dark web. Ross Ulbricht, the founder of this site, received two life sentences in prison.

Some people choose to browse the dark web for entertainment purposes. There are forums that allow users to share creepy experiences, as well as online games such as real-life scavenger hunts. Then there are the websites that offer a range of hair-raising services, including human trafficking, rape and torture on demand and child pornography.
The Isle of the Lost

Long ago, the most infamous villains from the fairy tale kingdoms were banished to the Isle of the Lost. A dark and dreary place surrounded by a force field that keeps anyone from leaving, evil reigns supreme there. Now, 20 years later, they are living there in virtual imprisonment, stripped of their magic and forgotten by the world.

But now the Isle of the Lost is getting a little too cozy. When the descendants of the most infamous Disney villains — including Mal, daughter of the evil fairy Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty; Evie, daughter of the vain Evil Queen from Snow White; Jay, son of the genie Jafar from Aladdin; and Carlos, son of the puppy-hating Cruella De Vil from 101 Dalmatians — start to realize that they miss their old lives back in Auradon, they begin to think that maybe being good isn’t all that bad.

When they discover that a mysterious artifact, the Dragon’s Eye, is located on the forbidden island where they live, Mal thinks it might be their ticket off the Isle once and for all. She knows that the only way to get it is to enter the forbidden fortress and retrieve it from within, but she’ll need a lot of help from her friends.

It’s a good thing she has them, because while they are all pretty good kids, they’ve got some wicked neer-do-well roots to overcome. I love that Melissa de la Cruz diversified the cast of her characters a bit with Carlos being Latin, Jay having a reputation for being a player, and Carlos and Jay both being non-white. This is a rare thing in most fairytale retellings.

Overall, The Isle of the Lost is a speedy read and a fun romp. It’s also refreshing to see the descendants of some of Disney’s most iconic villains in a light that doesn’t negate their evilness but doesn’t make them psychotic and bloodthirsty either. It’s a great balance and I hope that the movie follows suit. It will definitely appeal to both younger and older Disney fans alike.
The Five

After the destruction of Kobol, the Five developed resurrection technology and created humanoid models in their image. They gave the Eight survivors a chance at life by downloading them into new bodies. While the Five were working in a research facility on Earth, one of the Eight, Number One (called John by Ellen) became jealous of the other copies. He contaminated the amniotic fluid the copies were maturing in and corrupted the genetic formula. This wiped out the copies and killed the original. It also wiped out Number One's wife, Ellen, who had been close to the other Five copies (TRS: "No Exit").

When Samuel Anders regained his Cylon memories, he revealed that the Five are fundamentally Cylons. The revelation is initially shocking to Saul Tigh, Galen Tyrol, Tory Foster and Ellen Thrace, but they are able to download into new bodies. While the Five don't know that they are Cylons, they do know that they are fundamentally different from the Significant Seven. The Boomer copy of Number Eight confirms this to Baltar when interrogated.

While the existence of the Five is Canon, a substantial portion of their background comes from unreliable in-character testimony and so-called Canon Rumor sources. This complicates and clouds their true history, at least until further source material clarifies it.

In the early 2000s, Five became a popular boy band and were often compared to other boy bands such as New Kids on the Block, East 17, Backstreet Boys and NSYNC due to their uptempo musical style and street image, which was in contrast to ballad-oriented groups such as Take That, 98 Degrees and NSYNC. They released a few singles and several albums, including their debut album, Invincible, in 1999.

During the early years of their career, Five toured extensively and won many awards. However, their fame waned in the mid-2000s as the music industry began to shift towards digital formats. In 2021, the group reunited to embark on a Greatest Hits tour supported by Australian duo Sister2Sister. In addition to their live performances, the group released a deluxe edition of their greatest hits album.
Auradon

After the beast and belle get married and become king and queen, they establish Auradon, a regal new country that welcomes the heroes of old. They also banish their villain parents to the Isle of the Lost, a slum surrounded by a barrier where magic is suspended. Twenty years later, the teen descendants of Disney villains are now attending Auradon Prep. But they're still under the influence of their villainous parentage, which may threaten the balance of magical harmony in their lives.

While they fit in socially at school, their homecoming dance is interrupted by messages sent to them on the Dark Net that have a red X over their faces. Carlos suspects it's their villain parents trying to rally the Villain Kids, but Evie thinks the message is a hoax. Carlos also finds himself playing on the school's tourney team, where he learns the value of teamwork and cooperation.

In her spare time, Mal makes a new friend in Celia, who reminds her of her mother. She also discovers a book of spells that her mother used to have, and learns from Yen Sid that the dome the villains built to keep their magic away created immense pressure that pushed the magic underground. This formed the Endless Catacombs of Doom, a maze of magical lands that can lead to the Isle.

Meanwhile, Uma is still seeking revenge and wants to destroy the Isle's barrier so she can reclaim her title as queen of the Villain Kids. She feels that the VKs of Auradon don't care about the conditions on the Isle and are not advocating for change.

Despite her best efforts, Uma is unsuccessful at stealing Hades' ember. She's also envious of Ben and Fairy Godmother's romance. Ultimately, she changes her mind after she realizes that Auradon cannot succeed without the Isle's help. With Ben and Fairy Godmother's approval, she replaces the Isle's barrier with a bridge and everyone celebrates the newly-merged world. Carlos and Jane are happy with Doug, Jay is engaged to Audrey, and Mal and Ben are spending time together.
