Yeah, you could say that. The name I had you look for, that was a kid I'd taken care of for a while. Guess he turned out to make a name for himself.

[All of these things are understatements. But Rosinante is smiling with the fullness of the pride he feels. Okay, so Law did some really questionable things and is one of the world's most wanted criminals. But he's alive and thriving and Rosinante got to find out all about it despite having died, so who is he to complain?]

I told you I'd tell you more about what we'd learned from Doctor Solis, and I can still do that, but I have something else too.

[From a pocket, he withdraws an SD card, repurposed from one given to him before once he was shown how to upload files to it. He sets it on the top of her table, and the smile fades to something more serious.]

Since last summer I've been photographing and mapping the stars and assigning them names. Charting them. You might have people doing that too, I suppose, but I've also noted down every star I've seen so far that's gone dark and the date of its disappearance. I know sometimes stars die, but probably not as fast as this, so I figure there must be World Eaters out there and not just here. With this, you might be able to estimate movements, or see how long it takes before they've wiped out most of the visible stars. It's... concerning. I want to hear about your plan to stop them.
