Lily hadn't thought she could get lost in a town; the young woman had traveled so many cities that she figured a town would be simple. Yet, somehow she had gotten turned around. She knew where the flock would be resting; she really did need to get there and take notes!
She sighed, looking over the map again.
[For reference, she's 25, tall and on the slim side, with long black hair, in a tanktop and cargo pants with a messenger bag around one shoulder. She also has what looks like a blue stylized tattoo of a jellyfish on her left cheek. And she's lost!]
Getting lost in a small town like Inaba is quite the achievement. However, coming from a large city herself it's not hard to see how it would be possible. A lot of the scenery can blend together the further away you get from the main streets.
Either way, Naoto can more than understand what it's like to be new somewhere and not know where you're going. The girl wandering the shopping district looks to be lost in every sense of the word. It would be cruel to let her continue to wander without offering some sort of assistance.
"Pardon me, but you seem a bit lost. Is there any way I can assist you, miss?"
Hm? Oh, thank goodness. A local! And a polite young...sir? Ma'am? Lily wasn't quite certain, but, they were being polite whilst she was imminently mockable. She'd take it, surely.
"Hm? Oh! Yes, please! I'm looking for this area, right here? I don't know how, but I've completely managed to miss it. I think I must've gone past where it's supposed to be about three times, now."
As you see the map, it's readily apparent why she can't find her destination. Over Lily's attempts at tracing her steps in pen, it's apparent the map isn't quite...right. Several blocks, and indeed streets to go with them, are not where they're supposed to be. The map certainly says Inaba, but it's not quite...right.
"Well, I can already see why you're having such difficulty. I believe you have the wrong map."
Naoto looks a bit harder at it, her eyes focusing on the intended location. She's been here long enough to know her way around quite well and the area the girl is interested in is one she's familiar with.
"I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to give you proper directions as it can be a bit confusing if you don't know what you're looking for, however I could take you the area itself. It's roughly twenty minutes away from here on foot."
Lily frowned, scrutinizing the map for a moment. "Wrong map? But it says..."
And then something clicks, and her frown gives way to an exasperated sigh. "Ah. Of course...well, then, if you're offering, I'd actually quite appreciate that!"
She perked right back up, giving a friendly smile. "I don't think I caught your name. Call me Lily, please."

No worries!
