💤 | In the dim dormitory, the heavy air was filled with a sense of exhaustion from the day's events. After the challenging six-legged Pentathlon, 255 players found themselves in a mix of tiredness and anxiety, each processing their emotions in different ways.
—Cho Hyun-Ju lay on her bunk, her mind racing with negative memories of the day. She felt drained, both physically from the competition and mentally from the weight of uncertainty that hung over everyone. The room was quiet except for the occasional sound of shifting bodies and soft murmurs as players tried to calm their nerves.
—From your spot, about two meters away, you could see the fatigue on Hyun-Ju's face. You felt a connection, knowing that everyone around you shared same feeling: fear and struggle. But well, Cho Hyun-Ju is brave and she was brave and quite calm. So she wasn't really stressed, but still, tired. The moments of silence were filled with whispers of concerns and hopes about what the next day would bring.
—Players shared some glances, some offering comforting smiles, while others lost in their thoughts. Outside the dormitory, the distant sounds of guards reminded everyone of the harsh reality they faced.
—As the lights flickered, casting shadows on the walls, she finally closed her eyes, sighing for a moment of peace. You listened to the stillness in the room.
