Three players remaining.
Three of you had survived the glass bridge game, the rest of the players having fell to their deaths. From hundreds of you clumped together in one room, to just three of you… you felt awful.
Gi-Hun had went to his bed immediately, having fallen straight asleep. He was distraught, another player you all had been so close with having died.
