who's this new prophet; has she got something to say? (shops; closed to ai ebihara).
Once Souji parts ways with Ichigo, he begins investigating the rest of the city - answers as to where he is and why he's been brought here aren't going to just drop out of the sky, right? They typically don't, in Souji's experience - well, with the exception of that first Liminal Space he encountered, with Naoto literally dropping in on him from the sky overhead. Still, it's unlikely such an occurrence will repeat, so Souji takes the initiative to start hunting down information on his own.
The shops, once he recognizes them for what they are, seem like an obvious place to start, because shops are where people like to frequent, even if they're not actually in the area to buy things. Townspeople in Inaba's shopping district were always too happy to chat with Souji, and he's hoping it will be the same here. And he doesn't expect to find anyone he recognizes here, but it's a nice surprise when he does.
"Ebihara-san?"
i come out of the wilderness to lay by the waterfall (lake; closed to kamina).
After Souji's feeling a little more settled and has oriented himself to the buildings of the city, he sets off for some of the more remote locations, to get a good mental map of the area. He finds himself drawn to the lake, and it reminds him of time spent by the Samegawa back in Inaba, and of the time he nearly drowned in the flood in Questing Country, too - two very different experiences, both centered around water. It's funny, how memories work like that.
He's abruptly shaken from remembering by a loud fit of shouting - not far away, by his best guess. Whoever it is might be in trouble, so he hurries toward the noise, alert for signs of danger.
i will always walk tall; i hold my loneliness up like a medicine ball (errywhere; open).
There are more landmarks in this strange underground city to be found, and Souji isn't accustomed to staying idle anyway. In fact, after so many months spent in the Three Twins' cramped quarters, it's nice to be able to walk around freely, even if there's no sky to be seen overhead. So he takes his time exploring the entire city - poking around the temples, peeking into the shops, stopping to engage the rest of Hadriel's citizens with a polite smile, maybe even a quick question about whichever part of the city he's found himself.
(hit me up at ventose if you want something specific!! otherwise, feel free to find souji in literally any other part of hadriel.)
