Enki had told himself he would let others greet newcomers. He was bad at it. And yet, when one showed up, what was he supposed to do? Just keep walking? Even if that was not hopelessly rude, it was also out of his nature, even if they hadn't spotted him.
So when he was outside and heard the newcomer talking to themselves as they tried to process where they were and what had happened, he adjusted his path to reach them. "Um, hello." Ugh, he'd practiced that greeting backwards and forwards so that it wouldn't be entirely butchered by his accent, since his preferred greeting didn't have a literal translation and tended to just add to the confusion, but it still sounded so strange when he said it.
"Are... are you okay?" First concern, he could help them understand where they were after establishing that.
