"... Arisato-san?"

Naoto wasn't expecting to recognize the statue individual in the temple, but she had plenty of discussions with Kirijo and her group following certain events in Inaba that it had come up. Of course it was always possible in the world before to have brought people from theirs, but to see he was also a Hero in this one.

"... I can read it." Approaching the statue, she doesn't say anything more on the boy, choosing to begin deciphering the text. Before, she'd be lucky to read enough of it, but this time, it was much more apparent. "On Calamity's Eve, The Heroes of Light Rise. For Destiny to Weave, The Four Rise. From His Lost World, A Lord Was Formed. On Calamity's Eve, Summon the Four to Rise."

"Always the same story, it seems." Sephiroth strode into the room much with the same demeanor as Tyzias, indeed this expedition had gone on for long enough already. Pages of a book, the book itself, the fact that he'd lost all comprehension of where they were in the fight by the time he'd got over that petrification.

This whole experience, perhaps the more irritating of all the Temples, so far.

"Heroes of Light worlds destroyed, brought about an eidolon in this new one."

"That confirms it then! Those four saved Crystallis and their worlds turned into the big boss Eidolons!"

Just like they'd suspected in Mad'ni! After three temples, it's pretty safe to say they're not just speculations anymore.

"But, uh... Since it says to summon the Four on Calamity's Eve... Does that mean whoever built this temple knew Bahamut was gonna show up one day?"

Not quite, Sephiroth thought entirely to himself. If Takeshi's information pack were indeed correct in regards to the four 'saviors' of Crystallis, well, he'd not seen any version of himself plastered on a wall to any of these three temples visited so far. Perhaps it might be the fourth they've yet to uncover? That said, Bahamut was indeed a Summon from his Planet-

Sephiroth wasn't quite sure what to make of the thought that naturally followed next. So instead he'll pick up on the question asked, it doesn't hurt to show a peek of something relevant in his own opinion, perhaps.

"...Who knows. It stands to reason that a World created from the act of salvation of another might also carry the potential for a Calamity. In fact, I might suggest that every World has the potential for one, in one form or another."
