Hyein, exhibiting locomotive prowess, persisted in her endeavour to traverse the expanse of the forest; yet, upon each arrival at what appeared to be its terminus, she inexplicably found herself returned to her initial point of departure. In a moment of misstep, she came perilously close to suffering an injury to her knee, prompting a brief pause in her movement. It was at this juncture that she perceived a disembodied voice beckoning her forth.
The voice emanated a chilling, apprehensive timbre that instilled a sense of dread within Hyein, compelling her to futilely attempt to flee once more, only to find herself restrained by an unseen, mystical power.
"Your ability to evade pursuit is utterly nonexistent and nonnegotiable!"
The auditory senses of the subject were stimulated by an external vocalization emanating from an unspecified source.
Hyein endeavored to vociferate, yet rather was met solely with the gradual diminishment of her vocal projection, reminiscent of a distant echo departing from the confines of her oral cavity.
"YOU ARE USELESS.
YOU ARE NOTHING!
THEY DON'T WANT YOU...
But i could take you home...
And haunt your little soul."
The pronouncement of the mysterious voice was enunciated in a melodious cadence, indicative of a vocalization infused with musicality.
"Leave! Leave, whoever you are!"
Hyein, in a state of increasingly urgent need, implored with an intensity that bespeaks her desperation.
"I'LL TAKE YOUR LITTLE 'FRIEND"."
The auditory manifestation articulated as it bestowed upon Hyein a phantasmagoria of Eunchae.
"DO NOT TOUCH EUNCHAE."
Hyein implored in supplication, descending once more onto her kneeling form, releasing a wail of desolation.

But... Who could the voice be...?

"I'm getting worried about Bamby. When's he returning? I hope he gave the note to the princess already."
Felix, assuming the role of a subordinate individual in a duo, positioned himself at an aperture in a vertical surface, peering outward while engaging in a visual exploration of his surroundings, with the intention of locating the presence of Bamby.
In that particular instant, Princess Leeseo makes her entrance into the regal abode, directing her gaze upwards towards the figure of Felix.

"Oh, everything's okay, princess Leeseo?"
Felix, in a state of heightened curiosity, inquires.
"I saw something... Dark on the sky."
Leeseo vocalizes with palpable trepidation resonating in her timbre.
"Oh sh*t. Wait here, Leeseo."
Felix expeditiously descended the staircase and proceeded outdoors, whereupon he fixated his gaze upon the ebony apparition aloft, discerning it to be none other than the dreaded landmass purportedly inhabited by malevolent spirits and infernal entities - the infamous Helen Island.
The landmass in question occupies a vast surface area, teeming with the most formidable entities ever encountered by mortal eyes, thus rendering it a place uninhabitable save for those of nefarious intent.

It appeared as though Helen Island was rapidly approaching with each passing moment, causing Felix to become overtaken with fear, prompting him to hastily traverse into the regal chamber in order to apprise King Hyunjin of the impending peril.
"King Hyunjin, we're in danger..."

Felix vocalizes, while positioned anterior to the countenance of Hyunjin, exhibiting an air of desperation and fear. Hyunjin subsequently articulates in a composed manner.
"What is the matter, Lix?"
Hyunjin inquires with a serene demeanor towards Felix.
"They are... Here..."
"No... That can't be..."
Both individuals communicate with trepidation. King Hyunjin hastily emerges, observing the individuals and sentinels forming a queue, surveying the island of Helen, and a few casting glances at the chaos unfolding in Elvira.
