This is how the parentage was listed according to Mahieu/Burris (as stated by a third party):

[(CERULEAN STAR x LOCH NESS MONSTER) X ((Fairy Tale Pink x Donetha Marie) x Enchanters Spell)]

The square brackets are not needed - so I strip them away
(CERULEAN STAR x LOCH NESS MONSTER) X ((Fairy Tale Pink x Donetha Marie) x Enchanters Spell)

This indicates the pod parent was a seedling Cerulean Star x Loch Ness Monster
The pollen parent was a seedling from (Fairy Tale PInk x Donetha Marie) x Enchanter's Spell

Now all this is a problem since I grow 'Enchanter's Spell' and I am fairly certain that it is pollen-sterile. So how could it have been successfully used as a pollen parent? That means that these hybridizer's might have listed the pollen parent first or the actual seedling was produced by a natural pollination that beat the hybridizer's pollen.
