What if it does?

[If Riteior has a church in this abandoned city... what was beyond that door?]

Are there any books at the church? Anything you could bring back? [A pause.] If you plan on going through the door before you head back, please tell me.

[siriusly]

I didn't see any at the church, but...but there is something of a library in the town. Alucard said the books are in another language, so it's hard to translate. But that's where he got the name Riteoir from.

[convene]

Why does that not surprise me?

[He sighs again, before flipping through the photos once more.]

What are you planning on doing next?

[siriusly]

Well, first, I gotta try and get a couple hours of sleep. But then I do gotta find out if anyone's gone through that door...and if not, figure out who's ready to try.

[convene]

Get some sleep.... and let me know when you are going to try opening the door.

I'm sorry I'm not there with you.

[siriusly]

[he exhales a soft sound.]

Half of me…is glad you’re safe back there. But…I know I’d rather have you watching my back.

[…]

But…if I could ask a favor?

[convene]

Of course. What is it?

[siriusly]

Would you be able to check in on Jun for me? Especially if he tries to open up the Roost on his own…he’s just a kid.

M-maybe you can help him find houses? I know I was supposed to be helping out, but since it’ll take a week to even get back…

[convene]

Of course.

I'll drop by the Roost and see if he's around first and see if he'd like to look for houses. I hope he won't mind too much.

[siriusly]

He shouldn’t. He’s a good kid, he just… he worries about being a burden.

[convene]

I hope he realizes that he is never a burden. [It took a lot of convincing to prove that Ryunosuke wasn't a burden... so hopefully they can help Jun realize that he isn't as well.]

[siriusly]

Mmh, I think...it'll just take some time. And some doing. Just reminding him. [kind of like how Manabu doesn't believe he's so well admired unless Ryuu tells him all the time.]

[convene]

Sounds like we all need a little reminding sometimes.

I'll go by the Roost soon to check in on him.

[siriusly]

You're a lifesaver, Ryunosuke. Really.

[convene]

Really it's not that big of a deal!

But you're welcome. Now go get some sleep and be safe.
