Nice. If you're talking about the section with the checker floors and king-looking npc it is meant to be a parade. Reading the sign and Captain Red (the king npc) will give some more context. Hope you can make it to the end! If you are talking about the room with the lava, then good luck! It's possible to make it past it to the real challenge later!
