[Tielle pauses for a moment in thought]
I... think I may have an ideas as to what those were... but I can't be certain. An acquaintance of mine had mentioned something about these beings that would travel between worlds, which would... I believe he said they stole the hearts of others, in turn creating more of themselves in the process... I'll have to ask more next I see him, but I will relay to you any new information I find.

...The name of this individual?

His name escapes me at the moment... and his appearance is even a little bit fuzzy right now, must be a result of not feeling well unfortunately. My head is in quite a bit of pain... Though I do recall he oftentimes wears a long, black, hooded cloak.
[If anyone would know anything about Zexion from the get go, it would be his ominous taste in attire. It should be enough of a hint to gauge whether or not the two have met in the past.]

Zexion.
...I wasn't aware he had any such dealings.
[And only because he's him will he not comment on the fact you didn't remember something more obvious like his blue hair, Tielle. Why you would protect Zexion makes him a touch more suspicious of you, in fact, but it can't be helped.]

Yes, that was it... you know of him I suppose? Last I spoke with him, he had mentioned something about these beings called... heartless... I think? It's the only guess I have as to what attacked us might have been. They don't fit his description exactly, but it's the most logical thing I can think of... unless you have any other ideas...

[A small pause, and he glances to Tielle suddenly.]
I think it best not to trouble Zexion with this matter considering the terms of his involvement are questionable at best.
[he assumes she's ont he same page. It wasn't a hole in the shape of a heart or such, it was a heart, after all. And Zexion's somene he understands is intelligent enough to be devious. He's not intending to underestimate any possibility in this. Quietness works best, he finds. For the unexpected strike. But how to explain this to Tielle...]
Like you, I intend to go for the throat.
The heart of the matter.

If it would be appropriate to press on your hospitality at any time, this might be such a time.
[Down to business. Plan time.]
Were I to visit for an extended period along with those under my hospitality, there could be benefit.
In your weakened state I don't doubt the distaste of battle.
Consolidation of targets offers more capable defense. Defense which you might have need of.

Those under my protection I will protect.
This is a consolidation of forces, not an impinging upon your personal security.
Eberling isn't entirely incapable in his own right, either. [Respect? For Cole? Definitely unusual coming from Eyes.]
I bring with me a shapeshifter and a twelve-year-old boy from China. Is this acceptable?

I take no chances.

A piano would be...appreciated. [With his frown it looks as though he'd rather say "necessary".]
