It's funny to say, although the Sword Maiden always wanted Ash to come to the Kingdom of Stars, and Ash always wanted to come to see the Sword Maiden, they never discussed what to do after meeting. It's like in fairy tales where the prince and princess being together is the ending, and they never consider the mundane aspects of life.
The main reason is that they both thought that crossing countries was a distant affair. Before inheriting the Heavenly Kingdom of Thousand Wishes, they didn't even have a concrete plan for crossing countries, just like not buying a lottery ticket and lazily fantasizing about how to spend the jackpot.
Who could have imagined that after inheriting the Heavenly Kingdom of Thousand Wishes, the concept of the Sky Gate and the Technique Spirit would explode, and Ash and the others would coincidentally arrive at the Kingdom of Stars?
