The correct answer is

LOST - LTSO - TSOL

Label the four positions of the first word as 1-2-3-4. Look at DENY → DYNE: the letters at positions 2, 3 and 4 (E, N, Y) become Y, N, E, so positions 2 and 4 swap while position 1 stays. Check HUGE → HEGU: positions 2, 3, 4 (U, G, E) become E, G, U, again positions 2 and 4 swapped, position 1 fixed.

Next, from the second word to the third the whole string rotates one place to the left: DYNE → YNED and HEGU → EGUH.

Apply step 1 to LOST: keep L, swap positions 2 and 4 (O and T) → L, T, S, O = LTSO. This matches the given LTSO.

Apply step 2 to LTSO: rotate one place left → TSOL, which matches the given TSOL.

Hence, LOST - LTSO - TSOL follows the same logic.
