Struggling to Survive in Hell Difficulty (Part 1)
Trapped in a 'game' of brutal difficulty, every step is a fight for survival. No map, no gear, no help from the AI – just an ominous 'Causality Rectifier' hunting you. With each death, a new lesson is learned, and a sliver of hope emerges. Can you navigate the deadly Forest of Darkness, unlock your true potential, and escape this 'tutorial' before your character, or your sanity, is erased?

The inky blackness pressed in, suffocating and absolute. A chill snaked down my spine, a primal urge to flee. I ran, blindly, for what felt like an eternity, the only sign of my existence the bizarre, ominous pop-ups that flickered in the void.

"...damn it... what kind of game is this!?"

My foot snagged on unseen roots, sending me sprawling. A jolt of pain, a system message: [You fell. HP -1]. Then, the words that turned my blood to ice: [The distance between you and Causality Rectifier have decreased].

"DAMN-! WHY DOES THAT SOUND OMINOUS!?!?"

A blurry blue arrow blinked in the darkness, a desperate guide. I scrambled to my feet, the sound of tearing fabric confirming the loss of my 'Normal Pants'. [Lower Armor (Normal Pants) Durability 2/10]. Before I could curse the absurdity, another warning flashed: [Causality Rectifier is getting closer]. My heart hammered. This wasn't just a game; this was a nightmare.
