LUCKILY that isn't necessary. As the last of you step through, the fog suddenly parts under a strong, sourceless gust of wind, spreading and dissipating, revealing the arched Japanese bridge everyone is standing on, and beyond it is a red tori gate guarded by (ordinary) stone lions.
Stepping past the gate brings you to a paved clearing edged with forest. Opposite of you is a wall (http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd290/ceesoo/SabraLaTau/shrine_gates.png), the overhang making it impossible for a normal person to climb over, though one might be able to peep through crisscrossing beams holding up the overhang. Set in it is another gate, this one with doors, which seem to be bolted on the other side. At least there doesn't seem to be any guards aside from more big statues of stone lions?
You see some buildings, largely obscured by the trees growing in the way... Also.. Something about your vision feels weird. Although your eye is still blind, you'll notice that oddly you no longer have a blind spot. If you pay too much attention to it that perception tends to go away, but it comes back if you go back to focusing on something else.
The sensation may also be familiar to people like Watanuki, who are used to things like dreamwalking.
"Eh, really?? That's what I've been wondering too..."
He looks up at the gate, troubled. He is a boy not much older than Yayoi, clothed in the typical Edo style, with brown hair (the result of bleaching and dyeing) and mismatched eyes, his left eye appearing red due to lack of pigmentation.

Um—hello. We were just wondering if there's a way to go inside . . .
