However, looking at the earnest expression of a kind-hearted man of God, he hastily drew a general map to tell Zen the safest path. “The labyrinth is very dark,” he informed Zen. “You could use magic to light the place, but many other monsters would be drawn to the light even if you follow this path. This is where the labyrinth watcher resides within the labyrinth. If you visit him first and ask for the special lamp he uses, the monsters will not be lured to your group.” Eyes bulging in disbelief at how easily Zen had gotten a map and new useful information they did not know previously, she gaped.

Like he was seeing something both miraculous and deeply, deeply dangerous. “You did that,” he said quietly. “Feels more like it did me,” I said, my laugh frayed. “But yeah. That one’s not in the brochure.” He took a step toward me, then checked himself, as if afraid of interrupting whatever tenuous connection I’d established. “You’re breaking its level,” he said. “The Labyrinth was never meant to… exit sideways.” “Good,” I said. The central mirror flickered, the cracked image of us scrambling to reform.

“There is no right answer. Only consequences.” After a long pause, Jessica exhaled sharply and reached for the door marked with the witch’s symbol.

Then he vanishes again. When he comes back, it’s with a ring this time, one the size of his head. Its property is unknown, but it shimmers with lights that seem alive, looking like a colorful snake slithers inside it. The object could break if it falls; that is how fragile it looks. The Realm’s Future, they call it. It is also the only thing with color in the Labyrinth, aside from the Umbra Crown’s golden eyes that are now peering at my face pores.

Joseph replied. "I wish I could stay for some more time. But I guess I have to go. This seems like a long staircase," Ms. Lilac eyed the staircase they reached after walking for 10 minutes. The forest was gone. Everything around them was clouds and a beautiful stairway starting from one end towards the sky. "It just looks like a long one. But it isn't. It is time for you to rest now, ma'am. You've done a great job while you were alive. I hope you will rest well," Joseph bowed his head to her.

At the far end, servants unrolled an enormous scroll and placed it on a stand, the parchment filled with intricate writing and symbols. “This,” Varric said, gesturing to the scroll, “is the Labyrinth Riddle. An ancient puzzle written by the first High Seer of our kind. Solve it, and you will prove not only your wit, but your ability to untangle the threads of fate itself. Fail… and you are unworthy to continue.” A ripple of shock moved through the hall. Serena’s smirk faltered, though she quickly masked it. Varric continued, “You will each be given the riddle.

“ Thays what I thought. Now pay attention so I can explain to you what you can expect in my labyrinth. First of all, the labyrinth is designed to test you in every way possible. In there, you’ll be face to face with your worst fears, creatures you’ve been taught to fear as children. And of course, it is pretty easy to get lost. I can’t begin to tell you how many have wandered this very labyrinth until dying because they couldn’t find the exit. Of course, if you see one of your fellow prisoners, you two may end up fighting. You could team up, sure, but honestly, can you trust the others around you? After all, I’ll only be offering the reward to the first few who successfully navigate the laby
