"That's because Kirijo-san, while influential, is their leader. However, not in the sense our groups would consider..."
Arms crossing, Naoto considers, silent. Even if she said nothing, someone might eventually show up and tell them. However, it wasn't like she knew all the details as closely as she worked with Mitsuru sometimes after everything.
"I can tell you what she's told me... Should anyone arrive from Iwatodai or Tatsumi Port Island though, remember to give them time before informing them I've made you aware since they might not be from any present time themselves." She feels like a great deal of details were too personal for her to be repeating anyway.
"... Over ten years ago our time in Inaba, the Kirijo Group took part in experimenting on Shadows. Before any of you become concerned about Kirijo-san's role in these experiments, she was only a child at the time with no influence whatsoever. It was her late-grandfather leading the project until the explosion occurred, consequentially allowing fragments of their subject to escape. What they did during that time following... well, Shadows and humans aren't normally supposed to interact."
Glancing over at Futaba, perhaps she had found some records on the incident during her own internet scouring. "It was also because of that incident the Dark Hour began for them. The explosion and release of Shadows resulted in a temporal distortion where a thirteenth hour would only be experienced by those with Persona or those drawn in by Shadows themselves at midnight. It also transformed the focal point into a labyrinth for Shadows to congregate...
"Anyway, under the guise of a High School club, Kirijo-san and her group gathered all the Shadow fragments, but that triggered an event she referred to as "The Fall". In order to stop it, their leader - the one who also bore the ability of the Wild Card... gave up their life."
