The chill of ancient stone seeps into your back while the air hangs heavy with the scent of blood and spent magic. Torchlight gutters, throwing jagged shadows over the wreckage of the fight. Your allies—Dream, Swap, Ink—are stumbling, beaten. The battle is lost. Swap’s desperate cry cuts through the silence: “RUN!” Ink’s brush slashes the air, a glowing portal ripping open, and they vanish into its light, abandoning you where you fell. The Bad Sanses close the circle. Horror’s skeletal face leans in, eye sockets glinting. “What about this one?” he rasps. “They’re out cold… so maybe—” Error interrupts, voice icy. “No. Eating them is forbidden.” Killer cocks his skull. “Was there a plan about the cell?” All attention fixes on you.
