Although the scene in paragraph 2 is narrated from the third-person omniscient point of view, the narrator uses the first-person pronouns "our" and "us" in the first sentence. how does this variation in point of view affect the text? it enables the narrator to show the scene from an outside perspective as well as from inside the characters' minds. it makes the reader suspect that the narrator is a third character in the scene. it creates a personal bond between the reader and the narrator, making the reader more sympathetic toward the characters. it the reader connect with the narrator through the informal “you” and “us.”

I believe the correct answer is: It enables the narrator to show the scene from an outside perspective as well as from inside the characters' minds.

     In this scene in Paragraph 2 of the novel “Count Monte Cristo”, written by Alexander Dumas, although the story is narrated from the third-person omniscient point of view, the narrator uses the first-person pronouns "our" and "us" in the first sentence to enables showing the scene from an outside perspective as well as from inside the characters' minds.

     The third person omniscient narrator is the “all knowing” narrator, which shows the readers more than just one character’s thoughts, actions or feelings. Many describe this kind of narration as a camera. By using the first person pronouns, the narrator is inviting readers to follow them “along the only street in this little village” and show them both outside and inside perspectives of the story.
