Just as Xaon's ability to sense Nobodies was clouded by the presence of all the dusks Rixor's was as well, and once they had all let back to Transient Town he was able to think more clearly. Concentrating on the energies around him he could feel the pulse of townspeople and even the Heartless. Then, like a lightning bolt he felt the presence of a Nobody. This presence is strong....perhaps a new recruit...
Rixor was able to pinpoint the Nobodies location the valley of crystals, just beyond the Bailey. The Nobody was heading toward Maleficent's castle. Disappearing into a portal he emerged looking down on a black haired figure running through the crevices carved out by modern machinery and light blue crystals. There you are, a greater Nobody. I am in luck. Rixor leaped from the ledge he was perched on and landed a few strides in front of the man. Immediately the wary townsman drew two long katanas beckoning Rixor to attack.
"I'm not here to attack you," Rixor said, "I'm here to offer you a new home."
"I don't need a home, this is my home!" the male barked back at him.
Rixor took off his hood, his silver hair blowing slightly in the wind, "This was once my home too," he remarked reminiscing of all the times he ran on these very paths, "but you are no longer a human, surely you know you can't feel anymore."
The man looked confused, "What do you mean?" he asked, a sense of urgency in his voice.
"You are a Nobody, like me, you have no heart. It was taken from you back there when the black orb was thrown on you and those people. But...you are special." The man began to lower his katanas listening intently to what Rixor had to say. "Like me when your heart was taken it wouldn't give up, it was too strong and wouldn't let your body be taken with it. So you became a Greater Nobody, just as I did."
"I'm a Nobody...." the man looked down at his chest and then back up at Rixor, "what do you want with me?"
"Like I said, to give you a new home. Sheath your blades friend, I come in peace. My name is Rixor."
The man slowly returned his blades to their sheaths and studied Rixor, weighing in his head what to do. "My name is Ian."
A smile came over Rixor's face, "Very nice to meet you Ian. I am part of an Organization called The Black Dawn, our goal is to get our hearts back and you know as well as I do that the more numbers we have the stronger our organization will be. Come accept my offer and I will take you to our home base and introduce you to our leader. He'll present you with your new name and your cloak." Rixor summoned a white portal behind him and looked back at Ian.
"A new name...?" Ian inquired. Rixor looked back at the research facility in Radiant Garden, "I was once called Rori." Ian looked at him at walked towards the portal and entered. Rixor followed knowing Xaon would be pleased when they emerged in the Forgotten Sanctuary.
