[Ah. He thinks they were hiding. Well, technically that's sort of true. They didn't want to disturb him. At least until they figured out how to approach him.
Well, they still aren't entirely certain, but they walk forward, turning to stand on the other side of the plants he's caring for. They stare into him, empty, vacant sockets looking him over.
Until finally they choose to gaze into his eyes. Still they don't understand. The darkness, the void, it resonates strongly with them, but something at his very core is standing in the way. Something... bright.
Maybe he'll give them a clue when he looks at them. After all, how many hearts of pure darkness, not tainted, not corrupted, not broken, but pure, undiluted shadow and void, can he possibly have encountered?]
