Aurora smirked, looking over at Brenda. "I think this is where the Test of Courage comes into play, right?"
"Precisely," Brenda nodded, a rare, chillingly professional smile appearing on her face. "A traditional Kimodameshi. However, doing it on a private island elevates the psychological stakes. We can map out a safe, designated trail through the island's forested interior. The path will be clearly marked with bioluminescent stakes so no one actually gets lost. We will station volunteers from the Drama Club in costume at various intervals to provide the necessary atmospheric jumpscares."
"Oh, the Drama Club will absolutely love that," Hanako giggled. "They've been dying to reuse their props from the Halloween festival. It's perfect recycling!"
