Gale peeked over the edge of the pit and then turned to Fred with disappointment, "Your Highness, it's the Vase."
Fred's face appeared at the edge of the pit. He glanced down at Yuka and said, "Fine, let her be bait."
"If you want to come up, obey us," Fred commanded. "Do what we say, or you'll be eliminated right now."
Gale waved a stone in his hand, threatening to throw it at Yuka to deplete her remaining health if she didn't comply.
Yuka, slightly curling her lips, agreed, "Okay."
Gale, satisfied with her compliance especially after she had embarrassed him last time, threw a vine down for Yuka to climb up.
"This vine has thorns," Yuka pointed out. "It will reduce my health."
Annoyed, Gale pulled up the vine, removed the thorns, and then let it down again to pull Yuka up.
After dusting off her clothes and fixing her hair under the incredulous gazes of Gale and Fred, Yuka asked, "What do you need me to do?"
