Although there was a close call, Nicole was able to remain within her tile despite the mud suddenly having the force of a racing ocean and the slipperiness of ice.
Once she was done, the monsters had begun to move. There were two monsters, one fairly small and another was a giant. The smaller monster was near the chest and similarly had a dice rolled next to him, though it simply morphed into the number 4 instead of needing to be hit.
From there, the monster walked over towards Nicole, still 3 tiles away, the chest in between it and Nicole.
The large monster similarly rolled its own dice, rolling a 5. It was near the other side of the board, and lumbered in Kairos' general direction, though it was still 7 tiles away. At this point, Si spoke up.
"It seems avoiding them may also be part of the challenge as well. Perhaps it should've been obvious that they would've moved."
