Northern beamed brightly, a big smile gracing his lips. At this point, he wasn't even paying attention to whatever Ellis was saying.
He immediately summoned up his panel.

From the description alone, Northern felt like he was going to go brain dead.
'Eh? What is it with this complicated description?'
He looked at Ellis who was frowning at him. Right now, Ellis's frown didn't matter.
Northern was just wondering, 'Does this guy even know about this complicated description?'
"Ellis..."
"What? Did you finally decide to pay attention to me?" Ellis was almost pouting.
"No, I want to ask. Do you have a true name?"
Ellis's eyes widened for a moment but he quickly composed himself and looked away.
"No."
"You're lying." Northern raised a corner of his lips and said further, "Don't worry, I am someone you can trust. You don't have to lie to me."
Ellis slowly turned his head to Northern with a slight frown coming on his forehead.
Suddenly and strangely, his parents' words rang in his head... "Ellis...until you find someone you can trust...never show anyone what you can do."
Something about Northern tempted him to want to trust him. Besides, Northern had managed to find out about his ability... 'Maybe telling him is not a bad idea...'
Ellis swallowed his spit, with a hint of hesitation, he slowly opened his mouth.
"Yes... I have a true name... and it's called The Blind Song."
Northern smiled for a moment, "I see... what does it mean?"
Ellis shrugged his shoulders, "I don't know... maybe a song for the blind or it's the title of a song, I don't know. People say a true name's real power is brought out when the true meaning is realized. I tried studying about it so I could be a part of the very few that has unlocked the power of their true name but it was to no avail. I have never even seen it in any book."
Northern raised his head, with what Ellis said, one thing was clear.
'He doesn't have the description... so... this is a thing only I am capable of?'
Northern felt like his internal organs wanted to start dancing, happiness toiled inside of him.
This means that only he is capable of seeing such a description on true names. If this was the case, then plainly, Northern was closer than any of the drifters to unlocking the essence of their true name.
And not to say, he is part of the very few that have managed to unlock the power of their true name.
Yes, [Nameless] gave him the power to take away people's names and grow his attributes.
Although Northern did hope he doesn't have to use the ability at all. But he doubted that.
Humans will always screw up, no matter what.
He looked at Ellis and said:
"Don't worry, your secret is safe with me. I have no intention to tell anyone about your true name."
"What about you? Do you have a true name?"
Northern smiled, "I'm Nameless."
"I see..." Ellis nodded.
Northern raised a brow, 'What's with that look on his face? I just told him my name, didn't I? Anyway, let's test this.'
He raised his head and internally activated the ability.
A holographic panel suddenly appeared in front of Northern's eyes, floating beside Ellis with a line traced to his head.
Northern's mouth fell agape, he had to retract his head and clean his eyes to see well.
"Is something wrong?" Ellis asked with a frown.
"No, everything is fine." '...am I supposed to be able to see it like this?'
Truth was, no, Ellis didn't see it in words, he automatically had the information registered in his head.
But Northern was of a different breed after all.

Northern raised a finger, "Give me a minute..." he intoned and slowly stood up, he climbed the window and onto the roof.
Then he sighed. A fraction of a second later, a wide grin crept eerily up his face.
Northern's eyes sparkled with so much joy, he threw his hands in the air, jumped, shouting:
"Yes! Yes! Yes!! Yes!!! Yes!!!!!"
He slipped down the roof while jumping and rolled down, falling down from the roof of a 40 ft building... because he was happy.
When Ellis heard the loud Thud he quickly went to the window only to see Northern standing up like nothing was wrong.
It made him think, 'What the hell is this guy?' with a frown creasing his brow. He probably was never going to get tired of asking that question.
Northern continued to jump around, throwing his hands and legs like he had hit the jackpot.
Actually, he really had hit the jackpot with this ability.
"Crap! I didn't know it was so amazing!"
Finally, he stood still and looked up at the sky, looking to his left and right.
'This is so great, man... it's so great. It changes everything for me.'
What could Northern have seen to make him so happy that he tripped from the roof of a 40 ft building?
