"I've no intention of denying it," Elidibus answers. Same voice despite the lack of body. "What I witnessed was not what I intended to see." There's even a small trace of confusion present, suggesting the depth of surprise hidden under the generally calm facade. When the young godling approaches, he won't find his target flinching away or uncomfortable in the presence of such justified outrage.

Though he'd momentarily seemed lost in thought- the mask making expressions difficult to see- the Ascian looks up again and focuses on Zagreus's presence. What follows is absolute sincerity, both in explanation and apology.

"I was endeavoring to witness your interview with the Inspectors. Since the place it occurred is no longer available to me, I had to touch upon those present at the time. What I'd not intended was to see anything else. Pray forgive me. The fault lies with me. I was not expecting the shift of aether and lost control for a moment."

It may gloss over whether they're friends or even suggest he doesn't find anything wrong with what he'd done; Elidibus is certain this would have been the best path to gaining the information that would help them all.

Though he's brought back to what the godling mentioned; witnessing the form that had been known as the Lightwarrior. This Elidibus had not been unaware of it, nor had he missed the connection at the time.

"So you saw some of my memories when I lost control?" Well he sounds interested but at least he's not outraged. That would have been hypocritical and he's wise enough to realize it. Besides as Elidibus said, the fault for losing control is on him. If Zagreus saw something because of that, he only has himself to blame.

"May I ask what you saw?"
