[ Hmm. ]
Then the audience changed to the elderly and we were expected to perform a number more traditional, despite one of us being knowledgeable in Japanese culture. The grandmothers, I think they were... More difficult to please yet overzealous. They climbed onto stage...
You and yours must have performed better than myself and the other two. We must have looked like headless chickens on that large stage, the three of us.
Playing the drum... Was interesting. Naught what I had in mind or ever considered.
... I'm sure they do, but 'tis hard to forsake responsibility and not blame oneself. I wish to never be in that position yet I cannot shake off the fears the Prism has plans.

Soran Bushi. It's an old song--we sing it at festivals.

The elderly also wanted Prompto’s socks… For what, only the Fates know.

Ah... we did something like that at the citadel, once. A lot of us, together.
