I peeked out of the elevator, looking around what looked like the interior of a public library that seemed to stretch on forever with multiple floors above us.
The guy who had introduced himself as Grant gave me a worried look, "Umm… So… You're not a monster, are you?"
I turned to give him a deadpan look, "I don't believe I am?"
"What is that supposed to mean?"
"I mean… I don't know if you would see me as a monster or not. All I can say is that I walked through some kind of portal to end up here and I'm not a local of this place."
He stared at me for another moment before shrugging, "Ehh… Good enough for me I guess. So what's this place?"
"Looks like… A library. Have you been here before?"
"Definitely not. I've been stuck on that pool floor for quite a long time already. The last place I was wandering around before that was some place with spiral staircases. That was pretty trippy… But at least there were vending machines I could get supplies from."
