Analysis / Project Kat - Paper Lily Prologue

• If you read the true instructions to the Three Rooms Ritual^note obtained from the drawer in the occult club room after the flashback scene and take your time to process them, you'll come to the conclusion that there can't be any good outcome as it is blatant bait meant to lure any unwitting prey. Let's go over some points.
  • You must play alone. - There is no easier prey than the one which is alone.
  • Don't leave the door open. - So nobody will witness what happens to you and warn potential future victims.
  • Don't bring in any weapons with you. If you arm yourself, so will they. - Which means whoever "they" are, they're clearly out for your blood and would never ever allow you to get the upper hand.
• The otherworldly entity's quote "Why would you give your prey a chance to escape?" basically sums up the point of the entire ritual.
