Consider the functions defined implicitly by the equation y33y+x=0y^3 - 3y + x = 0 on various intervals in the real line. If x(,2)(2,)x \in (-\infty, -2) \cup (2, \infty), the equation implicitly defines a unique real valued differentiable function y=f(x)y = f(x). If x(2,2)x \in (-2, 2), the equation implicitly defines a unique real valued differentiable function y=g(x)y = g(x), satisfying g(0)=0g(0) = 0.

Question: The area of the region bounded by the curve y=f(x)y = f(x), the XX-axis and the lines x=ax = a and x=bx = b, where <a<b<2-\infty < a < b < -2, is
