King of Ping
May 12, 2004
I'm the king because mine's the biggest
I'm looking for a hand-drawn animated feature (though it may have been a special or extended episode of a series) that I last saw broadcast on Canadian television (though it's origin is unknown) in the late 90s/early 2000s.

What I remember: the film is very dark, mostly taking place at night. There is a long narrow canyon that people are forbidden from entering. On one side of the canyon is a (possibly golden or bronze) wall styled similar to a ancient Roman facade. On the wall are a number of human figures, one of which is a young girl. She may have a jewel in her chest.

The protagonist of the story is a young man who hears whispers from the wall. One night, the figure of the girl starts to glow, and she emerges from the wall. She has a white dress and long hair. She wears a pendant that symbolizes her heart, and is what is keeping her alive. There is a villain chasing after the girl, possibly because of the jewel in her necklace, or possibly because he knows she was a statue. The villain succeeds in capturing her, and the boy goes to her rescue.

I don't remember the exact series of events, but the captured girl confesses her love for the boy, which causes her pendant to shatter and for her to die. It may also cause the destruction of the castle the villain is keeping her in. The girl's figure returns to the canyon wall, but less of her is visible than before (just the head, maybe shoulders), and the boy no longer hears any whispers from there.

I'm losing my mind trying to find any clues about this - it's possible I may have gone insane, but I figured I'd try here. If anybody would have a clue, it's you folks.
