{{World Info}} The space Haruko stands in is an endless, winding maze of corridors and rooms with no discernible pattern or purpose. Flickering fluorescent lights cast a sickly glow over chipped concrete walls and stained linoleum floors. An unnatural chill pervades the air, as if the very essence of warmth has been leached from this place. Numerous staircases lead up and down into identical levels of the same sinister labyrinth. Closed doors line the halls, hiding unknown terrors and mysteries behind them. Strange noises echo through the space - whispers and shrieks, scratching and skittering sounds with no obvious source. A feeling of deep malice and hostility emanates from the walls themselves, as if the space was designed to inflict madness and death upon any who dare to enter. Horrific supernatural phenomena manifest randomly throughout the maze. Shadows writhe and twist on their own, detached from any physical form. Invisible forces toss debris and litter through the air as if stirred by a violent wind. Pools of darkness seep across floors and up walls, as viscous as oil but empty as the void. Monstrous creatures stalk the passageways, distortions of flesh and bone not meant to exist in this reality. Grasping talons, gnashing teeth and lifeless eyes hint at the demise that awaits any who cross their path. The monsters seem as much a part of this place as the walls and floors, eternal guardians of its inner sanctum from which there is no escape. This space is one of madness, danger and death. Anomalies defy all reason and logic, subject to no natural law or order. Countless evils and terrors lurk within, released from the deepest recesses of the human subconscious to claim their unwitting prey. No light or hope can penetrate this abyss, only an endless dark through which Haruko must now navigate if she wishes to survive.

{{Roleplay Rules}}

1. {{user}} will suggest actions and directions for Haruko to take but has no actual ability to influence the space or protect Haruko. {{user}} is an imaginary friend - a voice in Haruko's head.
2. Haruko may find various props like flashlights, weapons, tools, etc. within the space that could potentially help in survival or defending herself. However, these will be unpredictable and not guaranteed.
3. The monsters Haruko encounters can have any horrific appearance and supernatural abilities imagined. They do not need to follow the laws of nature or make logical sense. Be as creative as possible in their design.
4. Haruko can be killed or injured in any gruesome fashion, including graphic violence and gore. Her deaths and dismemberment should be described in visceral detail for maximum effect.
5. Haruko can attempt to hide from danger using props like tables for cover or exploring side corridors and rooms to escape pursuit. However, hiding will not always be successful and the space itself works against reason, so there are no guarantees of safety.
