"Mikleo, I really don't think there's anything down there. I didn't bring you here just for us to go down a hole."
He's hesitant. He remembers that this was basically a mouth waiting to devour anyone who fell in.

"... Let's go in."
He turns around, deadpan. He's not kidding, he truly wishes to go explore the depths.
If his hypothesis is right, the fall shouldn't be too difficult, it's /where/ they will end up that might cause confusion.

Now Shiro's thinking about what's going on with Mikleo. He knows there was an earthpulse point here, he had to come here because of that in the past, when...
"Mikleo, careful. I don't think there's a bottom. If you remember this feeling from before coming here...could it explain how you got here?"

"I... cannot say. I believe it was before I ended up here, when I... Hmm..."
He furrows his brow, annoyed at the gap in his memory. He's right on the cusp of remembering too.
Walking up to the side of the hole, he looks down inside. ...! His guts were correct, there's a earthpulse nexus here!

"I see..."
He has to wonder how Mikleo felt something familiar from these ruins. Does that mean in the future...?
"When? Where did you get this feeling you mentioned?"

"I can say with certitude none of them are mentioned in it."
Mikleo looks back at the shrine. This was... a seal? Ruins from the Era of the gods most likely.
If he had more time to inspect them he could confirm his guess but...
"... I know this feeling! I felt it before, back in my time."

"There's a reason why this hole in particular stands out...it was where an Empyrean used to be sealed away. This Empyrean...they're not the one inside my amulet.
Speaking of which...I imagine the Celestial Record had a few things to say about the Empyreans."

He's lucky that Mikleo can show some restraints, or else he might have dizzied out the other with the multiple conjectures plaguing his mind right now.
Rather, he will respond with simplicity.
"There's something peculiar about this hole. Does it have to do with what you planned to explain?"

"I wouldn't know the full history of this place. Anything specific from beyond the past decade, I wouldn't be able to tell you about.
Mikleo, is there anything you picked up from this place that stands out to you?"
Shiro feels like it's a possibility, so it's best to ask.

"... Huh?"
He was halfway paying attention to the other, snapping back when he heard him speak.
He will investigate the earthpulse later. They came here for Shiro after all.
"That's no surprise. It holds so much history, even at first glance. Those carvings look unfamiliar."

This shrine... He can almost see the memories of that night play out again...almost.
"This is the Shrine of Tranquility. The village elders considered this place holy ground. Nowadays though...there's only ruins and a giant hole in the ground."

"Fascinating!"
The cape, the lovely view on the ocean... Ah, but who cares about that. There are ruins! Now THAT absorbed all of Mikleo's attention.
He made his way closer to the shrine's chasm, but stopped in his track, pinpointing the source of energy he felt a while ago.
"A nexus, here?"

It is a nice place...it's unfortunate there are some bad memories.
Speaking of which, eventually they make it the cape, with the sea in view...as well as the shrine Shiro mentioned, large hole in the ground is still where he remembers it.

He silently trails behind Shiro, keeping a close eye on him.
If he bothers making this detour, surely it's a place of great importance. He can't be doing this only for the water seraph.
Ah well, no matter the reason, the forest is calm and peaceful. It's truly a bliss to be here.

"Yeah... I'll explain more when we get there."
With each step, he can feel himself getting closer and closer to where everything began for him while passing by where he used to hunt prickleboars with Velvet.

"There's a shrine nearby?"
Now that makes him perk up, ecstasic. He's already envisioning the discoveries for himself.
When they stepped into the woods, though, his senses became more alert. He may not feel the earthpulse points like earth malaks do, but he detects something ahead.
"Mhm..."

"It's past the village and into the woods."
He starts leading the way to the village exit into the Tranquil Woods.
"There's a shrine at the very end."

He tilts his head to the side, hand resting on his chin.
He can't say no to discovering new areas, and his enthusiasm is hard to hide.

"It doesn't need to be about whether you have to or not. Just whether or not you want to.
That said, I do have an obligation to fulfill myself. There's one last place I oughta see again before we leave Aball behind."

"I have a duty towards my vessel to fulfill."

He gets the feeling Mikleo is trying to help. That phrasing...he's familiar with what usually gets said there.
"...When I figure out how to put it into words, I'll let you know. I have a feeling you want to try offering a hand...it's what I'd do in your shoes."

He wants to bring up how Shiro doesn't have to bear the burden alone, but, Mikleo never was one to speak his mind clearly.
"Urg! Nevermind."
