Hellena Prison is an island prison on the southern coast of Serdio. A single drawbridge is the only way in and out. It's built into a large, crooked stone, with black smoke rising from several points. Guards patrol nearly every room, attacking intruders without hesitation. Their leader, Fruegel, is a man who greatly abuses his power. Under his rule, the prison's reputation is one of cruelty, where prisoners who go in, never come back out.

Story

After making his way through the Forest, Dart arrives at the Hellena Prison path. The path to the prison is incredibly narrow and likely, heavily guarded. With only a single drawbridge available, Dart must conceptualize a plan. Fortunately, a merchant's caravan arrives shortly after him. Dart tails the caravan and hides behind the merchandise.

Meanwhile, The Merchant converses with the guard explaining that his wares include "meat and fish." The Merchant then questions if there's any particular reason that there has been an increase in orders. He quickly dismisses the topic after the guard's hostility, who inspects the cargo. Thankfully, Dart remains undetected, hitches a ride, and travels across the drawbridge and into Hellena Prison.

After safely entering Hellena Prison, the same Merchant discovers Dart, who calls out in fear and quickly is followed up by a guard. A fight ensues. Dart assures the Merchant that he is not there to hurt (kill) him, and then the Merchant swears to secrecy. Dart leaves and arrives on the ground floor littered with guards and the occasional steed. The prison has corridors to many, equally guarded rooms.

Dart ascends the prison through the means of a pully elevator system, located outside of the prison cells. The levels are tall and winding built of wood and into the stone. Small fires scatter throughout this external area, typically before a doorway and on each floor. When traveling to and into the first floor cells, there is the guards' immediate alarm. Thankfully, they are not after Dart. Two guards are harassing their newfound prisoners, knights of Basil, taunting them and eluding that they will soon be fed to Freugel's monster. A fight breaks out as a prisoner attempts to escape, but they are interrupted before the guard can retaliate. A mysterious man in green draws his spear against the Hellena guard. Unfortunately, the other throws the prisoners off the floor and to their deaths.

Dart rushes over and discovers the character, Lavitz Slambert, the head of the first knighthood in the kingdom of Basil. Together they defeat the guards before turning on each other. Spear clashes with sword as they begin to fight, to which after exclaiming that Dart is "not the enemy," a proper introduction continues... until the arrival of more guards. Dart and Lavitz fight together. After, they share their reasons for coming to Hellena prison, explicitly that Dart is looking for his captured childhood friend Shana. Lavitz joins Dart exclaiming the Hellena is challenging to escape alone, insisting it would be in both of their favor to travel together.

They travel together, ascending the prison until the newfound duo comes across a large room on the second floor. Climbing a flight of stairs, they come across a large room with heavily guarded pathways consisting of 3-4 guards. A small, additional flight of stairs is to the back of the room. One of the only accessible areas, Dart travels up the stairs and discovers the key to Shana's cell on a nearby crate. Both Dart and Lavitz began to question their situation. What is it only Shana imprisoned?...what was/is so special about her?

As they return towards the previously locked cell doors, a group of guards catches them. After the battle, Shana hears the commotion and recognizes Dart's voice. Dart enters the cell, with Lavitz maintaining guard. Shana is happy to see Dart, and they reconcile briefly, their first meeting in five years. After, Shana and Dart leave the cell and rejoin with Lavitz. Outside more guards have arrived.

After the battle, Dart is worried about Shana and tenders to her carefully. Shana is particularly concerned that she is no longer a young girl and insists that she can fight for herself. Shana draws a bow that was resting outside a nearby cell. Lavitz is impressed that both she and Dart survived in Hellena, but Dart is still a bit distraught, feeling that this Shana is unchanged from his memories despite the changes from distance and time.

Meanwhile, Freugel has been alerted of their escape, including: the Basil night, a "red guy" intruder ( our beloved Dart), and Shana. In his anger, Freugel throws one of his men from the skyline bridge. Freugel barks to the other guard to recapture the girl, alive, as explicitly ordered by Majesty Doel.

Together, the group returns to the first floor but is met by the Warden Fruegal, who eludes that he will defeat them and feed the men to his pet. The evil warden is sure to include that although capturing Shana was an order from Majesty Doel, because the task was so trivial, destroying Seles was an additional command from Fruegel himself. Dart lashes out in anger. Together, Shana, Dart, and Lavitz envoke on a battle against Fruegal. Fruegal does not die, but this allows the party to escape the prison opportunistically and flee to the Prairie by horseback. Fruegel's men are hot on their tail.

After their escape, Fruegal, the Hooded Man men mysteriously witnesses his failure. The Hooded Man demands Fruegel to mend his mistakes; otherwise, he will tell Majesty Doel. After, the hooded men confidently retorts that all is going to plan.
