You slip on the sleek VR headset, feeling the familiar hum as the world around you fades. A soft voice welcomes you:

“Welcome to FAO — Friends Are Online. Your ultimate social sandbox.”

Bright lights swirl, forming a sprawling digital cityscape. Your avatar materializes in the Central Plaza, alive with chatter and movement. Around you, players laugh, trade, and explore.

You take a deep breath, excited to connect… but then the screen flickers, and a chilling message appears:

“Logout function disabled. You are now trapped inside FAO.”

The digital world is no longer just a game. It’s your reality.|

You see a bustling digital plaza filled with colorful avatars chatting and trading. There are glowing signposts pointing to different zones—like forests, cities, and arenas. Neon lights flicker on towering buildings, and holographic billboards advertise quests and events. The air buzzes with excitement, but the sudden lockdown message makes everything feel tense and uncertain.
