Night 62: Main Hallway 2-West
[from here]
By the time he reached the top of the stairs, Klavier had a vague melody playing in the back of his head. It really would have been better to have something tangible to listen to. That way he wouldn't lose it as soon as he tried to focus more thoroughly on his surroundings. He stood, quiet and straining to listen for anything unusual in the darkness. Nothing.
He still hesitated in proceeding forward. If anything, the continued silence just made the entire thing feel more suspicious. It was difficult not to feel like one was walking right into a trap or an ambush. He briefly glanced behind him, back down the stairs, before moving forward. Again, he just needed to focus on what he was doing and where he was going. Don't get sidetracked.
The area he wanted to inspect was straight ahead.

Seishin hesitated for a moment as they reached the top of the stairs, gazing into the silent, dark hallway. He had only traveled through that hallway once before, in the presence of soldiers. But the hallway hadn't been shrouded in darkness as it was now, and the current silence only made the area seem more ominous. Ominous, as though each step brought them closer in reach of claws and teeth. The small beam of light revealed little but their own presence to whatever that would await them, but it was a necessary evil.
The former priest couldn't do much else but wait for Silvestri-san's directions. Silvestri-san...he cast a concerned glance in her direction, but he otherwise remained silent.

Doggedly, Ilia made for their destination without bothering to look back.
