The plan had never been to surround himself with people. The plan had always been to live quietly, separated from the rest of the world. Watching but never truly being a part of it. But he allowed himself to become involved, a part of a larger group, he allowed himself some connection.
It hadn't been difficult to find out that people were looking for him, nor was it difficult to keep them from finding him. They were far too busy butting heads to put in the effort needed to find him. They were too focused on being the first to get their hands on him, on being the ones to control the end of humanity. It allowed other groups to come in and plead their case. The quieter groups who weren't so loud as to ward him off. It gave him a chance to hear their purpose and their beliefs without feeling like he was being lured into a trap.
One group in particular knew all the right things to say. They knew how to quell the fears he hadn't even expressed to them. If he had family (he does. He has perfectly normal, kind-hearted parents who had no idea what they were bringing into the world) it would be seen to that they were able to continue living peaceful lives. Though Eunji has tried to keep his connection to his parents quiet, it was only a matter of time before people learned of it and used it against him. Threatening the people he cares about would be an inadvisable way to win him over, but some people will do anything in their pursuit of power.
As with his parents, they said he would have a place to live as he wished and a place where he would be shielded from the greedy, grasping hands of others. They would keep him a secret for as long as he wanted.
It's been some years now since he first decided to throw his lot in with them. He lives as one of their many, posing as a lower ranked leader. The bottom of the top. Few know of his true nature, his real place among them. They see him as he means them to. That is, until they've proven they can be trusted with more. Once they can be trusted with a certain level of responsibility within the organization, a certain level of leadership, they can be trusted with Eunji.
One such young man has proven himself time and time again. His strong belief in what they stand for as caught many eyes, Eunji's among them. One of Eunji's more devout followers. That young man is who he and some of the other leadership are waiting for now. His presence was requested. They wished to speak to him privately. When Hanbin arrives, he'll be invited in to where a selection of the leadership is sitting, waiting for him. Eunji sits at the far end of the line they've formed across the room, his distance from the centre denoting his station. It's only temporary this time, however. Just until Hanbin is invited into their inner circle.
