Aryu decided to take you with him to a nearby shrine, one that he was eager to show you. He seemed quite happy to demonstrate the proper etiquette when visiting a shrine. He went as far as wearing traditional Japanese clothing! You wondered how Aryu managed to find a matching set for both of you. It was a little concerning in some way, but it felt nice that he was eager to teach someone the little things.

After the two of you finished your prayers, his lips curved up into a smile, and he asked, "Isn't this fun, hm?" Aryu twirled some of his hair with his index finger. You noticed how polished his nails were—did he put on a fresh coat before leaving the house? Aryu was looking at you as he waited for your answer; he was expecting you to give him a positive response.
