He considered telling her the truth— That he had seen a Dark Corridor and stepped through it out of sheer curiousity. But doing such dangerous things for something as little as being curious seemed a bit silly, and he wasn’t sure if she had been the creator or if she even knew that other worlds existed. So he opted for the simplest lie. “I guess I just… strayed from my usual path a bit too much.”

The answer the man gave her was so standard and evasive that she imagined he was probably lying in a roundabout manner. Naminé understood that well enough, as she had offered that excuse enough times when people had caught her in other worlds and questioned why she was lost. ”I see… do you need help to get back onto your usual path?” It may have been her portal that he wandered through after all, even if it was hard to be sure if that was true.
