Report MCVII: Class 9 Restriction. Multiple Documents Enclosed. Subject(s): No. IX
---------------
From the Desk of No. XIII Asst. to Head of Org. Research,
No. IX, Nilex, came in again today. He approached the Head some months ago with a theory on how Hearts seperate from our bodies may retain some residual link to us and cause us to react to emotions despite our disconnection to them. Needless to say, it was a radical theory that only urged us to persue this and our other theories as to regain our whole selves. However, over the past few months, his behavior has continued to grow somewhat more erratic, resulting in occasional outbursts, though his voice and mind seem to retain no sign of being in touch with his heart, even though his body is reacting to external stimuli. It is very, very perplexing, and the Council suspects that it may have to do with his innate ability to connect and gather hearts toward him. Still, I've perscribed some medicines that should prevent any more outbursts. It should appease his need to remain in control for future missions.

Journal, I witnessed the most bizzare thing today. I went to the balconies this afternoon, and encountered No. IX there. However, he appeared to be weeping. But, we aren't supposed to cry. Does this mean that he still has his Heart? Then how do the Lesser Nobodies still obey him, and how can he use our abilities? Is he a "Special" Nobody? I left him alone, but the thought is disconcerting in regards to our operations.

Council Members,
The report No. IX filed regarding the Union has proved most useful in determining who our foes are. We have a name and a face on file as to who seems to be one of thheir leaders, Alastor Yggdrasil. However, since his appearance at the funeral some months ago, he appears to have vanished. This leads us to believe that the Union either has a world hidden away somewhere, or travels constantly. While the argument has arisen as to whether or not we should take a similar approach for our own safety, all data recently collected gives no indication that we are in any danger. The only three who know where our world is are not threats. None have the means, two are too old and decrepit, yet supportive, to tell anyone, and the third, well, we should all admire her, shouldn't we? Regardless, I am filing to continue scouting and espoionage missions while staying wary on the ever-increasing darkness and show of Heartless. The emblem variety seem to be naught but extinct, leaving only purebloods. A sign that the balance is dying, and quickly. We shall address this at our next meeting.
-No. I

The Council met, and summoned me today. They want to have eyes and ears probing for the Union. They've ordered I approach Ari. I am not sure I am capable. But I have my orders...to continue searching for strong clusters of hearts, to maintain a healthy relationship with the child Clara and to ask..
...to ask Ari to find and join the Union.
