Story Mode
- Main article: Kirby Star Allies#Story
In the opening of Kirby Star Allies Story Mode, a mysterious hooded man, Hyness, failed to revive Void Termina in The Divine Terminus, located in their headquarter Jambandra. He ordered his three mages to recycle dark hearts, the pieces of the Jamba Heart splattered all over the universe. The mages arrive in Planet Popstar along with their mobile fortress Jambastion, the third level where Kirby & Friends would fight them for the first time:
Upon Zan Partizanne's first defeat, she, the leader of the trio, destroys the Jambastion fortress but Kirby & co. manage to escape. The mages then go to other stars in the universe to recycle the rest dark hearts.
The three mages would be fought again across the universe in Far-Flung Starlight Heroes, the fourth level:
- Francisca - Blizzno Moon;
- Flamberge - Sizzlai Moon;
- Zan Partizanne - The Divine Terminus.
Template:Spoiler Upon Zan Partizanne's second defeat, the hooded Hyness appears and fights Kirby & co. When Hyness is seemingly defeated (with very little health bar left), however, he becomes unhooded and reveals his true face. Then, he summons the three mages and turns them into rag dolls as his weapons and shields, continuing the boss battle.
Upon the final defeat of unhooded Hyness, he realizes they still don't have enough dark hearts to revive Void Termina, so he forces the mages to join himself and become the last sacrifices to their dark lord. It works and Kirby & co. have to defeat the revived Void Termina in the final battle.
When Kirby & co. enters the body of Void Termina after defeating his first phase, the Demon God Form, Hyness and the three mages are found trapped inside his core. Kirby & co. defeats his first core and saves the four sacrifices from his body. Upon Void Termina's defeat, the whereabouts of Hyness and the three mages are unknown, but they are confirmed to survive.
