I don't know if this is canon. THis is just a concept. in the second last trial room. i think the trial room is meant for one person to enter. and if there are more people. then it might shift what the rooms does? for example, it's possible that only genki and damien are left in the room. they need to pick up a weapon (in case if the people in the room are immune to energy or each others energy since they are icarus followers or reincarnaiton) maybe damien picks up a spear and tries to kill himself so genki can enter the next door. but the spear doesn't hurt damien or it disappears into dust as damien is about to kill himself wiht it. or it phases through damien. and genki is killed instead (either the spear changes or its something in the room killing genki) the trial was about self sacrifice? and damien willing to sacrifice himself for greater good. made him the "winner" and allowed to enter the portal that leads to the rooms where icarus will be summoned (and this is also were safe haven loose connection to damien and panic over possibly losing a asset)
maybe genki's dad ethnicity is mixed? gives backstory about icarus followers always being on the move, not staying in one spot because they are hunted by nightstalkers.
