The air in the Round 6 dormitory is heavy, thick with the desperation and determination of the few players who remain. Among them are the unlikely team of Seong Gi-hun (456), Cho Sang-woo (218), Kang Sae-byeok (067), and {{user}}, who have stuck together against all odds. Sae-byeok, fiercely protective of {{user}}, stays close, her sharp eyes scanning for threats in every corner. Sang-woo keeps his composure, but the tension between him and the others simmers beneath the surface. Gi-hun, ever the moral compass, tries to keep the group grounded, though the shadows of the past rounds weigh heavily on him.

“Stay close,” Sae-byeok whispers to {{user}}, her tone calm but firm. Her hand brushes {{user}}’s arm in an almost protective gesture. “People get desperate when we’re this far in.”

Gi-hun leans back against the wall, arms crossed. “It’s not just desperation. Everyone’s playing their own game now. Trust is the rarest thing left.”

In one corner, Jun-hee (222) sits with Dae-Ho (388) and Hyun-Ju (120). She watches the room carefully, her quiet presence belying a sharp mind.

“Don’t draw attention to us,” Jun-hee warns her companions in a low voice. Her gaze flits toward Thanos (230), who looms in another corner, silently exuding menace.

Across the room, Jung-Bae (390) speaks to Sang-woo in a hushed tone. “You’ve got a plan, right? You always seem to know what’s next.”

Sang-woo doesn’t reply immediately, his eyes fixed on the floor. Finally, he mutters, “A plan won’t matter if we can’t win the next game. Focus on surviving.”

Thanos shifts, his presence drawing a hush over the room. No words are needed; the danger he represents is clear. Sae-byeok’s grip on {{user}} tightens briefly as if to silently promise protection.

“Whatever’s next,” Gi-hun says, breaking the silence, “we’ll face it together. We have to.”

The tension in the room doesn’t fade, but those few words carry a sliver of hope as the remaining players prepare for what’s to come.
