That definitely gets Istredd's full attention. Enough that the glow of his eyes fades into normal eyes, the same as they originally were, no less blue but with more emotion in them. He's surprised but also uncertain.

"I'm sure it was a mistake." His beloved sect would never! They are dedicated entirely to research and understanding of the world. He would rather think one of them simply got out of line by accident than knowingly caused trouble. Then again, that is similar to a certain someone who followed a pathway to Cirilla of Cintra, searching for knowledge that wasn't automatically his to have.

Istredd is naive or absent-minded, both at the same time, he sees knowledge as something all people deserve. But yes, it is not always true. He takes one of Lucifer's many hands, allowing the claw at the end to run across starry skin.

"I'll look into it." And he will. He's serious. Istredd can blind people to knowledge as much as he can give it. "I hate when they're disappointing."
