Obviously you're not dying then, because Mulan and Aurora are both still alive, at least one of them wouldn't be, if you take into account that you always have to trade a life for a life in order to resurrect someone. Personally, I believe it might be the Netherworld. In the process of answering this question I would appreciate if the creators would answer how Prince Phillip was saved. Prince Phillip never died.... so that "rule" - a life for a life - does not apply.

OUaT and Aurora hinted, that Phillip's soul was trapped in the Neverworld. She probably encounted his soul one night, while she was sleeping. I always felt, that soul-sucking was the precursor to the sleeping curse. We all know, how the sleeping curse breaks. So, Aurora probably just kissed Phillip. Which leads to another question.... why did Mulan still think, she had a chance? Yeah, like I said, Prince Phillip never died. And your thought are exactly the same thoughts I had considering this question.

Cora once explained to Aurora what happens to a soul a wraith consumes:

"What if I told you that when a Wraith consumes a soul, it merely travels to another realm." (EP 208 - Into the Deep)

So, the Netherworld is probably a likely solution. Moreover, The wraith's eyes glow red. There's a room there which contains of flames.

Of course, kissing (TLK) Phillip probably would've solved the problem to bring him back. However there's a problem, I haven't seen a solution for, yet. If he and Aurora encounter each other in the Netherworld, they are not able to touch each other. Only your soul travels to this realm. You're not physically there. If you cannot touch, sadly, you can't kiss either.

That's why Mary-Margaret and Emma had to get back to Storybroke in order to wake David up, who was sent to the Netherworld by Mr. Gold to tell them about the ink. (EP 208 - Into the Deep)

''SCENE: Netherworld. Fiery Room. ''

David: A curse you're gonna break with true love's kiss. (jumping over the flames) Now. (They're unable to touch) Mary Margaret: No! David: It's a Netherworld. We're not really here.

Therefore my question - unfortunately - remains unanswered.
