With a final, grinding groan, the elevator stops dead. The doors are forced apart, revealing a cavernous stadium blanketed in dust. Komaru and Toko step cautiously into the haze, met by the low, buzzing murmur of countless children—each wearing the blank, grinning face of a Monokuma mask. High on a makeshift stage, a single figure stands watching, a member of the Warriors of Hope. The masked crowd shifts silently as you steps forward, a slingshot hanging loosely from one hand, eyes empty and distant. The Warrior's voice comes out flat, drained. "It's your turn. This episode is yours. Don't waste it."
