While playing the otome game; Dance with Kings and Queens, I found myself in the body of Rael Vandergarden when I woke up. He's a side character who's killed by Ru Hasselt, a love interest.
Knowing the grim future that lays ahead for the characters...

This was drawn by me! This person might be Q. I haven't really thought about it. I merely drew and haven't added a face to it. What do you guys think? Any other character you think this looks like?
MORE FAN ART BY MOI!

«The City of Treasures has finished. Survivors are awarded 10 points for the 1st trial.» A voice sounded from all directions of the white space. The students who'd been on guard the entire time relaxed. Some sat down, taking deep breaths. And a few blinked, bewildered that they were still alive. As long as their heart was still beating, they'd have survived if time ran out.
«The 2nd trial will begin shortly. You are to slay the Cursed King in the Maze of Madness. Those who slay the Cursed King are rewarded 10 times the number of points. Time limit: none.»
The apprentices stared into the air with surprise. If you killed the Cursed King off... you got 10 times the amount of points?! If they received thirty points earlier... that meant 300 points...! That was too good of a deal! And there was a time limit so they had all the time in the world to do it!
A few students, taking advantage of the break they had, began to walk around.
I was one of those students. I noticed that out of the hundreds of students, only two-thirds of them were left. How many did those statues kill...?
I sighed as I continued walking past unfamiliar students. Finally, I spotted the person I was looking for. I approached him and tapped his shoulder. Al jumped up, looking scared before he saw me.
"Woah—! Don't scare me like that!"
I suppressed a laugh and whispered to him, "Be careful. If you see anything dangerous, run. And team up with someone but be careful so they don't betray you or use you as a meat shield."
