This is Council member Dread Thunderstorm.

[Yup, it is. Video proof and everything. And who could possibly be mistaken for the massive Roegadyn?]

I'd like to know who here has combat training, and who would like it. Given that our missions often tend to involve self-defense at a minimum, so far, we should plan to train. Also, I'd like to know if we have any gaps to be filled in our teams so we can make preparations.

I'm already offering some classes in pugilism and martial arts, I'd be glad to expand those.

Let me know.

There is.. a circle of life. [Y'shtola or Urianger could explain this better than he could...] Most beings, when they pass on, have their aether dissipate and rejoin the greater part of it. But -- some beings can hold their aether together, between the boundary of life and death, and return it to the world.

I do not know if it is like that... maybe.

I was born when Kairi's heart was separated from her body and I became my own person. I don't know how it happened. It isn't supposed to but she had a pure heart. I am the only one born form a pure heart.

Her heart turned into you? [He traces a finger in a curve, point A to point B. The image in his mind is much more literal than what she might mean...]

Not her heart. Her heart was safe with Sora. I was born from the husk.

I am a nobody.

I don't agree.

[He thinks her statement is a matter of opinion, and his answer comes as a reflex.]

I'm sorry. It is how Nobody's are born.

Have you never encountered a Nobody?

You -- you mean this some way other than the obvious, don't you. That's a -- term?

Yes.

When someone's heart is stolen... in their place a heartless and a husk is created. Those with strong hearts create strong husks. A strong husk is called a Nobody. It normally contains the memories of the person it was before and it takes a shape similar to the person who's heart it was born from.

[Dread folds his arms and bows his head, to think.]

[He isn't an aetheric scholar. Y'shtola or Urianger would understand this better than he does. But still, after a minute of turning around...]

I don't understand how that's possible.

I don't know why it happens, I only know that it does and that's how I was born.

I was... never meant to exist.

There's no 'meaning' in whether or not someone exists.

Why do you say that?

I don't believe that people are meant to be fragmented into parts.

Neither do I. That's why I don't think it's possible, what you're saying.

I don't know what to tell you. If it's not possible then I wouldn't be here.

Unless it didn't happen exactly like it sounds.

I don't know. Does it actually matter? You're here now.

I don't know.

Does it sound impossible? I was reunited with Kairi but then we were separated again... It doesn't matter. [Her voice softens.] But a part of me wants to know.
