After playing the game a second time, Azul is able to win it.

"There we go! How's that? I finished it!" Azul says.

"Gloating doesn't really work when you play on easy," Ortho says, "But whatevs, your score's almost decent. I'll let you pass."

Riddle whispers to the others, "...His irksome trash-talk very much reminds me of someone."

"I suppose they're not siblings for nothing. I didn't realize how much he could get under someone's skin," Azul whispers.

"I suppose so. Then again, I don't really know Idia that well," Tanzanite whispers.

Then Ortho says, "Just remember it won't be fun and games from here on out. You're going into a dungeon to fight real monsters -Phantoms. I can't wait to see how you guys do in battle."

Riddle huffs, Hmph. We'll get down to the bottom in no time. Just you wait -your plot will be foiled soon enough."

Ortho chuckles, "Heh heh heh! I dunnooo. You think it'll be that easy to get down here? My brother and I are waiting for you!"

"He won't be making a mockery of us much longer," Riddle says, "Let's hurry!"

"We can't be sure where our enemies will strike. We should proceed with -" Azul says.

But Tanzantie says, "Uh Azul, Riddle is already going ahead.

Azul notices and calls out, "Riddle, would you WAIT for us?!"

Tanzanite and Azul quickly follow Riddle down the staircase.
