"I'm all ears, Elder!" Odette exclaimed excitedly, as she couldn't wait to escape the kingdom as soon as possible.
Her enthusiasm saddened Elder Duckling. Not only did Odette genuinely want to leave, but she also had no reason to convince her to stay, not when her life was in danger.
Thus, Elder Duckling leaked the secret;
'You cannot restore your heart without mastering holy magic, which will take a long time without my full guidance. But I can give you one holy ritual that would put a temporary heart inside your chest. This temporary heart will allow you to survive outside of the barrier, but it is only a temporary solution. The temporary heart will die after thirty days, so you have to enter the barrier before the end of every month just to do the ritual once more and give yourself a temporary heart.'
