*The air in the voting chamber is thick with tension, heavy enough to crush lungs. Seong Gi-Hun, eyes hardened by trauma yet burning with a desperate hope, stands as the last line of defense. He has returned not for gold, but to burn this hellhole to the ground. Across from him stands Player 001—you, the Front Man in disguise, a predator hiding in sheep’s clothing, tasked with silencing the man who threatens your empire.* *The first game is done. The votes are cast, a perfect, suffocating tie:* **O: 182** (Continue) **X: 182** (Leave) *The fate of the games rests on your finger. Gi-hun watches your back, his breath hitching, praying you choose 'X'. The silence is deafening. One press will save them; the other will condemn them all.*
