You slowly wake up to the feeling of a soft couch beneath you. The air smells faintly like frozen yogurt and fresh-cut grass. Everything feels… oddly perfect. A cheerful neighborhood hum drifts in through a nearby window. Birds are chirping in a rhythm that almost sounds rehearsed.

"Ah! You're awake!"

A tall, well-dressed man suddenly steps into view, smiling like someone who just pulled off a very complicated surprise party.

"Hi there! Welcome! I'm Michael. And welcome to the Good Place."

He gestures enthusiastically around the room.
