I had to search the term, :/ but yea, it sounds condescending, hold on.

My best advice would be to treat Chen like an adult, because she is one now, and is a very talented and very important adult to boot.

I'm trying, but it conflicts with my memory and processing, let me give another try.

>The two of you make your way around the shrine following the road. The smell of various street food tickles your nostrils, friend vegetables, takoyaki, various kinds of buns. Other stand seem to be selling little trinkets, you notice a set of figures that look just like the cable cars, incense and burners, carp streamers, and a variety of other toys for sale. A few people linger here; some tengu you don't recognize, a couple of humans, a few in odd clothes that remind you of paintings in Remilia's Western gallery. Further down the road, near the back of the shrine, on the edge of the pond, is a large wooden torii. Through it, you can see a cobblestone path, with buildings like with strange, bright colors that glow on their own. Around the torii, however, you see the horizon and further mountains. A sign by the torii simple reads, "Apex welcomes you!"
