>You reach the intersection. Looking southward, you see the hall is largely identical to the one you are in. Or rather, you can spot the differences in how things are arranged, but largely the hall is just a rearrangement of all the elements you have seen. It gives a feeling similar to Higan. As well, having come from the ostentatious upper floors, this floor now has a feeling of stark plainness. Up ahead some yards, you see another group of soldiers cross at an intersection, briefly glancing over at your group before vanishing in the opposite hallway.
