[That there's actually a town with locals here, actually... makes Syrlya feel a little less skeptical that this is all some sort of trap.

It's all still weird and off-putting, but... it seems to be genuine. A god generally presides over the island. The community needs help to revitalize their home. He isn't quite sure where the romance falls into that, though.
The pamphlet is still tucked under his arm, though he's been mindful not to share it with any locals. He's on his way out when he sees Satoko staring so intently... and it dawns on him.]
