Eren chuckled.

"Come now, Nuul. An empty mind is the easiest to fill," she said.

Eren saw Nuul's disposal of the corpse, and blinked.

"Huh. Well, that's taken care of, at least. Now, I'll make the tea."

Eren brushed off her dress, and walked inside. As she set off, she looked behind her and raised an eyebrow at the hunters.

"You know, had you guys not showed up, Viper would be properly contained and my dress wouldn't be ripped. I want you to feel properly guilty for ruining my dress," she said, before going inside proper.

She entered her relatively spartan kitchen and started brewing tea. She waited for the hunters, before speaking.

"So, I guess the first thing you should know about is Puppeteers. Remember how I said Dolls were a varied lot?"

She spoke with steel in her voice, "Puppeteers are not. A doll will have as much of a fully fleshed out moral compass as a human. Puppeteers do not. They influence people and attack their hearts, turning them into monsters known as Marionettes. Marionettes are forced to watch their bodies do unspeakable acts. Marionettes are as powerful as dolls, and are similarly immune to non-nail based weaponry."

Eren paused.

"A marionette can be cured, however, By bringing them within an inch of death and then attempting to destroy the puppeteer that inhabited the body."

Eren paused. He seemed to be turning something over in his head. He seemed to be choosing his words carefully.

"A marionette may still be susceptible to their doll's influence after the fact, if that puppeteer is not successfully destroyed," Eren said, "But they will no longer have their marionette powers. They may manifest odd traits, like enhanced senses or an intense pain tolerance, however."

He paused, "Nuul, am I glossing over anything? Do you have anything to add?"
