[lup buys a bigger staff! her spell slots have jumped from five to eight.
shinobu's gloves allow her a dexterity boost. with these gloves, she's able to grip onto any surface imaginable, including enemies, to move at her will.
joonghyuk's tattoo, when worn, will last for 15 minutes to intimidate the competition as he sees fit and knock them out of the games.
as the group head over to the grass where the crowd has gathered, they will find what appears to be a hedge maze. it's not as big as the one in the realm, but it does appear to be long, winding, and disorienting. the mc is standing outside of the entry points where the three remaining teams wait. taako glances at lup, seemingly staring just past her before looking away and continuing to chat with his teammates. the starblaster crew laughs together about their current victory, and the demon corp team stares at shinobu with dull, judgmental eyes before turning away.
the rules of the game are explained. each team must enter the maze, doing their best to hide from the shadows and stay in the sunlight. they will not be successful if their whole team does not exit the maze at the same time. they have to do their best to defeat any creature that catches up to them, but on occasion, familiar figments will pop up to startle them. accidentally eliminating any of these will lead to automatic disqualification.
