As the light before his eyes slowly faded, Xia You looked around and saw where he was.
He seemed to be in a park in a city.
The park was lush and green, planted with many trees and other vegetation. A neatly maintained path lay beneath his feet, with streetlights, benches, and trash cans lining both sides. In the distance, he could hear children playing.
