Okay, gentlemen. We need to metagame here. Metagame hard. If Lenglon was able to make a roll to see if he could break free, we need to convince the other three forumites to post a roleplaying action indicating that they don't want to fight.

Also, as we have seen in Ciro's spirit battle, these spirits suffer damage when they attack. So, in theory, we could outlast them by going full evade, while they spend their HP to attack. This strategy could be made even more efficient if once we know the range of their abilities, we position ourselves in a way that would decrease the spirits' chances of hitting us (after all, a -8 to hitting means that we will evade almost all the attacks, statistically speaking.

So, the first action should be to stand in the middle of the room (long range for everyone) and try to evade.

I'd like you guys to read this part and onward so you guys can remember how we beat our spirits the first time. 2 things you can learn form this is that spirits have around 15 health and that they have normal hp and sp. It does not cost them Hp to attack either.

The only one who did take damage on attacking had a specific skill that did that:

Guys. Think back to Proxxy's Tactical Diplomacy battle with Ciro. We convinced her to be an ally, but ffs said that he had a spirit duel planned which would be fun because Proxxy could also summon spirits.

So... wait a minute. Menus. Use the Circuit on the so called chains binding the spirits. Or just summon some other spirits to aid us.

TWOOTA: where something that's clearly dumb and will get you killed is going to be the way to go even if the players voting for it outright state that it's clearly dumb and will get them killed.

Interesting note: the Soul Trap effect is slightly different, this time; it's missing the purple. Maybe they aren't hostile?

Try to talk to the most friendly looking spirit.

To my non-drinking self, it looks like brandy, vodka, cognac, and maybe some other clear stuff to me.

So, I see four active portals just sitting there projecting spirits. They must represent a weakness between physical and spiritual. With four open at once, they cannot possible stop or control all of us.
Us: Rush the open portals, physically enter The Warrens in vast numbers. Fill the room, conduct philosophical debate concerning the body odour of the creator.
Can the menus be used to repeatedly activate the traps? The control mechanisms must have their limits, spamming spirit should suffice...

The power of love automatically breaks mind control, right? That seems consistent with all the media I have seen...
Convert one of the spirits into a magical girl and proclaim that you need them.

You could try the old "Divide and conquer" technique...
Feign weakness and proclaim that only the (vaguely indicated) beautiful one is worthy of destroying you.

Either they attack one another, so this can be resolved to a one versus one through evasion, or they do not attack one another...
Use the puppets to disguise yourself as a spirit. Also whip up some electromagnetic levitation and an eery electrical glow.

Water has been known to sever connections to spirits, getting them into the water might prevent them from being controlled.
Retreat to the water. Challenge them to a contest of "who can hold their head underwarter for the longest"...

Sudden Authorial transformation may be your only escape!
Hurl the pendant at the fourth wall, aim for F.F.S., just look for a giant trollface.

melt the hinges off the chest and nab the lid, then use the lid as a shield to lure them into close-combat in the water, then jump on the lid and electrify the water to hit them all at once.

The number of tiles in each corner may be important, try to engage the spirits in order.
