[ It's probably about what he expects, that Riku leaves without giving him a straight answer.
He constructs a single lantern, he sets it out to float among the others, he even speaks with a few others who have gathered here.
And then Riku leaves, long after his dirt-stained pants have dried and the floating lanterns glow in the distance. He takes a less scenic route - just beelines straight for a small hill where the sandy dirt eventually gives way to a steepening slope clotted with withered vegetation.
The hill commands a decent view of the gathering down at the shore and of the humble boathouse. ]
