My Form Empties

A bell occasionally tolls in the red room. It's a heavy, subduing sound. The statue is chanting something. You're unable to recognize its words. But, you feel that whatever it is, is not a joyous thing. There's a brass ring on the statue's finger.

Choices

Listen closer.

Team's average SP under 0

You close your eyes and focus on the sound. What is it saying? This thing is uttering thoughts. Empty oneself by verbalizing one's thoughts. Expel everything within so that nothing remains. That is the statue's way of forgetting the self. You sense yourself disappearing as well.

Team's average SP at least 0

You close your eyes and focus on the sound. You are able to pay closer attention to what it is saying. It is uttering its thoughts in the form of a mantra. It is emptying itself by verbalizing its thoughts. In that case, you will absorb its teachings. Fill yourself with the sermon it has gouged out. While it has forgotten itself, you gain a clearer sense of self.

Success

You picked up the ring in its hand. It remains perfectly still, maintaining its chant. This statue won't move, no matter what happens around it. Though it stays forever still, and the tone of its mantra remains consistent… You knew one thing. Its chants are imbued with a curse.

Failure

You tried to pick up the ring in its hand. Its wrist suddenly spun in a circle. You reach for the ring again, but that wrist keeps moving, denying you. It could be conveying that you are unworthy.

Win the battle to earn a Keywordless E.G.O Gift and a Sinking E.G.O Gift

You place a coin before the grand Buddha Mūrti. With the ceaseless chanting gone, only the hollow echo of the bell bounces off the walls of the chamber. Perhaps the touch of secularity in the face of an emptying form has triggered something. Those taken by the Buddha Mūrti begin to swarm the void the chanting left behind.
