After trying various tricks to charm or impress the cloaked figures and getting nowhere with it, our hero gives up on that endeavor and continues deeper into the maze. The windows are now empty. The figures are apparently no longer interested. He comes upon a juncture where he can go left or right. There's a strange smell to the right, and from the left, irritating beeps.

What would you have our hero do next?

^{Stay Cozy!}
