Do not let your fear consume you. Do not let your weakness defeat you. Do not let your uncertainties hinder you.

Crawl into the night, fight.

Under the scorching sun, fly.

There are a myriad of oceans to sail. Countless prairies to survey. All your visions deserve to come to life.

Don't die.

Don't die just yet.

Not yet.

Thank you for heeding the call of The Halberd.

Welcome to the Pentagon. Before we proceed, we assume you fully understand the terms and conditions stated in the documents we had you sign. Is there an item you're in need of clarification?

I see.

Congratulations. You have been found. From a pool of more than a million people, you were chosen to carry out the will of this dying world.

You must be special.

Today, we aim to verify if you truly are.

You have chosen to undertake the Trial of Survival, and we look forward to see you alive and well after your victory. Trust that we  really would like to see you win.

Well then, before you enter into the labyrinth we have prepared, we wish to reiterate this one final statement.

The end for the weak is always death. If you die, you shall not expect us to provide a proper burial. We will throw your body to a river, feed you to our chimeras, or burn you with our trash.

Just in case, have you written a farewell message to all the people you hold dear?

We pray you have.

Because in three days and two nights, we will try our best to kill you.

Shall we begin the Ritual of the Dead?
