After 40 years of questioning, dying, and rising, the group encounters humanoid skeletons who ask where they have been and what they have been searching for. The skeletons eventually fall to a pile of bones and the group is welcomed into the labyrinth with a flight of stone steps going down.
Set in
Darkness falls as the characters find themselves in a bone tunnel without Hiare. A disembodied voice challenges them to identify its identity. They realize their bodies have reset to before the suicide and the world has restarted. Hrothulf suggests killing themselves or each other. They discuss different ways of dying and speculate on the nature of their situation. They attempt various methods of death and discover they can respawn only when everyone dies. Time passes, and Ego goes through psychological distress and changes forms. Hrothulf spends time cutting walls and mushrooms, while Izar ages slightly. Klutch proposes staying in one direction to overcome the labyrinth. Izar loses hope, and they try various attempts to communicate with the voice. Eventually, they encounter aggressive skeletons who ask where they have been. After defeating the skeletons, a passage to a labyrinth opens up, leading to a flight of stairs going down into darkness.
