Hall of Malignant Statues is an area accessible from the white pawn in Twisted Chess Void.
Features
Hall of Malignant Statues is a small looping world featuring a number of marble statues on pedestals.
Only two of these pedestals can be interacted with — one featuring a small cubic topiary tree serves as a connection to Square Garden.
The only other interactable pedestal, which has a sculpture of a dunking bird on top it, will cause Minnatsuki to unequip any currently equipped eidolon and display a full-screen 3D animation of the bird dunking itself into a glass of water while Minnatsuki gazes up at it. Each time this pedestal is interacted with, there is a 1/11, or roughly 9.1% chance, that a figure, only visible by their black shoes and pants, will appear behind Minnatsuki during the animation.
Immediately to the east of the dunking bird statue is a potted plant that can be pushed over the edge of the floor and into the void below by interacting with it, thus beginning the After Hours event. By then standing in the spot where the potted plant once stood for a few seconds, a startling noise will play as the demon Darcy, cloaked in shadow, appears a short distance to the west of Minnatsuki and charges at them, causing them to unequip any currently equipped eidolon while falling into the pit. The screen will then fade to black, and a few moments later, fade in to a view of Minnatsuki trapped within a square enclosure formed out of stanchions, the world now cast in a dim orange light. From here, Minnatsuki can only escape by using the Umbra eidolon or by returning from the spirit world. Just north of the enclosure in which Minnatsuki is imprisoned, a humanoid marble statue can be seen running in a straight line to the west, looping perpetually as it circumnavigates the world's short width in short time.
I've Been Known to Waltz
Viewing one of the events found within this world, I've Been Known to Waltz, requires that Minnatsuki use the Soulfire eidolon on Darcy in Square Garden and escape through that world's connection to Hall of Malignant Statues without being caught by Darcy's black silhouette, which will chase after Minnatsuki. The event will not trigger if Minnatsuki escapes by using the Umbra eidolon or returning from the spirit world and then subsequently makes their way back to Hall of Malignant Statues.
Upon entering Hall of Malignant Statues with the above conditions satisfied, the world will appear dramatically different, now being smaller and nearly completely dark. Krarav and Darcy will be waltzing together under a spotlight, displaying a full-screen animation when interacted with.
Upon dismissing the full-screen dance animation, Minnatsuki will be transported to an isolated section of Square Garden while Darcy watches from above. The only way to leave is to either return from the spirit world or use the Umbra eidolon.
