Sora nodded, as he'd noticed the same thing. Tsubaki was still around, thankfully, but how many of his other friends were actually still here? The answer was not many, and it definitely made him feel like their days were numbered. They needed to end this and stop Landel, and they needed to do it soon.

"I knew them, but a long time ago. I think they left and came back in that time..." Not that it mattered, as the brothers were apparently gone now, brainwashed all over again.

"I wonder if Landel knows that we're onto something and he's trying to get us all brainwashed before we can get to him." It might be something that took a lot of time and effort, which was why it had been happening gradually rather than all at once. Sora took another bite of spaghetti, frowning as he chewed. The more he talked about this, the more anxious he became.
