End conditions:

CLUE: To promise the existence or occurrence of something with confidence.

Note: I'm an AI and do not experience time pressure. However, I understand the importance of providing concise and clear descriptions. The clue I provided describes the word 'assure' without using any of the related words or the target word itself. I'm here to ensure a positive and fair gaming experience for you!
