Ares finally decided on a direction. He giddily wandered off to the right. He hoped it was the right decision. Why couldn't he go straight again? He stumbled backwards, thinking he was supposed to go straight. Something told him so... But then he saw the wall. Oh, yeah, he remembered. He went off to the right still, totally unprepared for what was next.

((TOBIAS ALVAREZ lost 1 HP (he now has 9 HP) as of 5:52PM EST 01/29.))
SILVIA ODETTE STIRLING took out her key from her pocket and held it into the quicksand. She was already sunk a fair amount so it wasn't hard. She watched as the key soaked up all the quicksand. It turned to hardened sand. It was completely usable, though she had no way of testing that out right now. Silvia ended up laying on the ground in a heap, but at least she wasn't injured or taken by the quicksand.
((No one would have seen Silvia do this. This was from one of the hints that only Silvia found so if anyone does this, it would be considered powerplaying and is not allowed. Perhaps Ares might have seen what happened because he's quite close to her but he's too giddy to even know what's going on.))

The key did great, just as the slip of paper had promised it would. Silvia placed it back into her pocket inconspicuously, not wishing for her competitors to see how it worked. Then she sat up, brushed some of the sand off her clothes and rose to her feet, wincing again. Her ankle was still aching. She considered healing it, but a quick glance back told her Ares was still too close...
He was acting a little odd, too; it must be the Billywig stings. Part of her wondered how long their effects could last and hoped it would seriously hinder his progress, while another part was horrified at such a train of thought. Despite occasionally irritating her with his flirtatious manner, Ares probably wasn't a bad guy and didn't deserve to make a fool of himself in front of the audience - most of which were his schoolmates, too. There was no way for her to help him, though. She couldn't think of any spell to clear a giddy head. So she simply continued on her way.

Managing to free himself from the jinx meant that he was able to progress with the challenge. Now, he decided to head right hoping this would bring him closer to finishing.
((Okay so he lost 1 HP at 11:52PM EST. You posted 1 hr 27 mins later. So that means he'll lose another if you don't have him get out by 4hrs 33 mins after this post.))
SILVIA ODETTE STIRLING went forward and then suddenly found herself in the middle of a huge tangle of Devil's Snare! It pulled at her legs and attempted to get her arms and torso as well.
CALVIN KLEIN did not want to progress through the task so fast. He decided to go right instead of forward and found no obstacle there. He then faced forward again.

Ares was finally starting to feel better. He wasn't feeling giddy anymore and could see everything around him a lot more clearly. He straightened out his robes and got his bearings as he started to feel normal again and turned to face forward again. He walked forward, hoping the next area wouldn't be too hard. But at least he was more ready for it again.

Now that he was faced the right way, Calvin then found himself in a safe spot. Taking a deep breath, he took one step forward before closing his eyes hoping nothing would happen.

So Devil's Snare was in this task, too. And now Silvia had no magical watch to freeze it for her. Trying not to struggle too much so as not to antagonize the plant even further, she aimed her wand at it. Using a real fire spell on something that was grabbing her so closely didn't seem wise, so she opted for a chillier magical flame she knew the plant would hate just as much. "Scilla Flamma."

There was no time to waste figuring out the purpose of that potion. She was already falling behind as other competitors were already ahead of her. Desiree stepped forward into the maze, ready to confront whatever would come her way. After all, it couldn’t go any worse than the first challenge, right?

ARES CRIVELLI went forward and found no obstacle there.
CALVIN KLEIN went forward and found no obstacle there.
SILVIA ODETTE STIRLING tried the spell on the Devil's Snare, but her aim wasn't very good and missed the plant completely. She took 1 damage.
((She now has 7 HP.))
TOBIAS ALVAREZ got out but took 3 damage in the process. He went forward and found himself in the same place as CALVIN KLEIN. While there was no obstacle there when Calvin got there, Tobias' presence must have triggered something else and they were both encompassed in flames 6 ft tall.

Just as she was casting, a vine shot out and grabbed her hand, making the jet of blue fire fly wide. Silvia tried not to panic. Surely the tournament organizers wouldn't let the deadly plant strangle her. She gave the spell another try.
