Frame a story where the protagonist is trapped in a pitch-black maze, out to confront their fear of darkness and claustrophobia.

How does this situation force them to confront two strong fears simultaneously? Through this prompt, the writer can build a story upon the protagonist’s fear, navigational challenges, psychological evolution through survival, and potential hope and catharsis at the story’s end. This also allows the exploration of themes like persistence, courage, and the human instinct of survival.
