Somehow, as the sun goes down, the hugeness of everything around you becomes even more magnified. You feel small and afraid in the darkness, surrounded by mysterious shadows, and wonder exactly how long it is you have to live. Then the anthem begins to blare, and the faces of the dead—children just as young and innocent as you—appear far above your head. Will you be next?

It is not difficult to count that twenty-two of the tributes have already died, and there are only two tributes left — only one remains in the way of you and your crown.
As the anthem ends, the final image fades, once more leaving the sky lifeless.
Almost as soon as it's over, the air temperature suddenly rises at least ten degrees, and what was once a comfortable coolness has now turned to nearly unbearable warmth. For the rest of the night the temperature continues to climb, little by little, until finally you're dripping sweat. Then all of the sudden, you feel wetness under your feet. You look to see the massive ice cube where you spent your last day melting completely away in the heat. Because it's so large, you'd think it would take a lot of time, but this isn't the case; it deteriorates quicker and quicker, and you realize that due to its sheer size, it could flood out the entire area; you need to get away fast. To the north, the snow at the tops of the mountains have begun to melt and slide; this location is certainly not safe either. You make a quick decision and run straight for the maze, all the while knowing that this was planned. The Gamemakers are driving you and your final competitor together. The Games will end today.
Congratulations on surviving Day Seven, Tributes!
