The game finally neared its completion as Theo and the others closed to the endpoint of the gigantic board game. Sam's dice roll brought her to a "Mystery Box Challenge."
Sam approached the area designated for the challenge with a mix of anticipation and trepidation. A large table stood in the center, with a series of closed boxes arranged neatly on top. Each box had a small hole on the side, just big enough for a hand to fit through. The audience, gathered around eagerly, could see the objects inside the boxes through transparent panels, but Sam would have to rely solely on her sense of touch.
Ayia placed a reassuring hand on Sam's shoulder. "You've got this, Sam-chan! Just trust your instincts."
Sam nodded, taking a deep breath. "I'll try. I just hope they didn't put anything too scary in there."
