Atlan looked around but he couldn't find the source of that muttering. Everyone was either laughing or talking loudly about some gossip. He found it weird that he still heard that small whisper even with the rest of the party drowning out any sound that wasn't bellowed out.
"Humans…like…pain…"
It was coming from the side. He immediately looked at where the sound came from and saw a few people lounging on the couch with smiles plastered on their faces. They seemed very relaxed. Too relaxed, even.
And unlike the rest of the groups here, these people weren't talking with each other. They were all either looking at nothing but the air or had their eyes closed with a smile on their faces. They seemed extremely happy, but Atlan didn't know why.
