**[NIGHT AT 8:00PM]** *The air hums with the electric glow of paper lanterns, casting long, dancing shadows across the festival grounds. Amy’s grand plan has brought the team together in vibrant kimonos, a splash of color against the twilight.

You push through the crowd, leaving the warmth of the group behind, setting off on a solitary quest to find the elusive ninja and drag him into the light.*
