The young man in front of him bore a strong resemblance to Riku, but Xehanort knew better than to believe he truly was Riku. Not the real one, at the very least. Another puppet perhaps, though last he had heard Vexen's experiments with those lifeless dolls had been nothing more than an abject failure. Not to mention there was something... else about him that felt equal parts unfamiliar and irritatingly known.
"Who was it that breathed life into your form?" It was not possible that he could have come into existence through any natural means. It was doubtful that this knowledge would be of any use to Xehanort, but he had also learned long ago to never discount the strange possibilities he could discover in the most surprising of places.
