An NPC's Reality

        When the three of us began to realize what happened, we looked around our surroundings. My eyes started to focus more and then sounds came back. The sounds of cheers, screaming, and laughter outside. It looked like we were in the same antique shop with the same sphere but a new place. I stood up and helped Grayson and Matt to their feet.
