Kei kept his gaze fixed on the paperwork in his hands as he walked down the hall, walking past room after room of patients. Whereas most asylums had patients behind prison-like doors with little windows with bars, this asylum had glass doors to resemble a zoo exhibit and to make sure the patients had little to no privacy in case they tried hurting themselves. Most of the patients chose to remain in corners, on the bed, or right up against the glass whereas others occupied themselves with wandering about the rooms, talking to no one, or playing with toys like children. They did pass a larger entryway where other patients were gathered, playing board games, reading books, or off by themselves doing whatever they did to idle their time while music played from a record player, to which one patient was spinning around in circles in time with the song that was playing.
