Slipping on your headset, you feel a rush. It's impossible to describe exactly, but it feels like your soul is being ripped right out of your body. Thankfully, it's over quickly.
Getting your bearings, you find yourself in a lobby of some sort. The room is fit with a front desk, waiting room seating, a water fountain with a sign on it, a trash can, and an exit "door". The exit isn't on apparently, as it's just a wall with "Instance Exit" plastered on it. There's a keycard reader attached to it.
The strangest thing about this room is the fact that there's nobody here. There's evidence that there were people here at some point, as evident by some drawings on the walls. Stuff like "Where is everybody? /:(", "Monogon abandoned the plant!" and humourously "I miss the old internet."
It's pretty clear that there's nobody coming. Looks like you're stuck here. Should you try to escape?
