Nel had never met Hojo, but he was high profile scientist in Midgar, or had been. He'd been the head of Shinra's science department, and there were all sorts of rumours and stories about the monsters Shinra made, including their SOLDIERs.
But surely.... But this was Khamja, wasn't it?
"He's supposed to be dead," Nel said, surprise and disbelief still tainting her voice. "He was the head of Shinra's science department, but he died in a laboratory accident in Midgar years ago." She paused, and decided to make an adjustment to that statement, "Or everyone thought he did, anyway."
So his death had been faked. She wondered who'd done it, and why.
"He'll be why Szayel was told he can't have Orochimaru's labs," she said, putting her chin on her hand as she thought about it. As far where he'd been hiding until now, and why he'd moved into the Palace, she couldn't hazard a guess. It was a big world out there, and much bigger if you had Khamja's backing to hide in it.
