[Silco was dead. Back home. And clearly he didn't know this, if he thought it was still possible for Silco to pull the strings. She didn't doubt that whoever took his place might still be able to pull those same strings, but she would be sure to do everything in her power to keep that from happening.
But she's not going there just yet. He's talking about Heimerdinger. She's definitely grateful for the founder of Piltover for helping Ekko, but she had always known him to be a kind person. Granted, her interactions were scarce and brief, but she had definitely met him, thanks to her mother's position on the Council. Which made her wonder, did Ekko know this? She hadn't even told Vi yet, when they were still with Ekko. She had been counting on Jayce's help, rather than her mothers.]
I'm glad you were able to get away safely. We both worried, leaving you behind like that. [Especially with Jinx there. And knowing Jinx walked away, albeit maybe not so well, if Silco had to heal her with Shimmer. She had worried, in those moments, that Jinx might've killed him too, until he showed up here.
She pauses, trying to decide how to best explain what happened. It was... a lot. Memories she tried not to think too hard about, since she was barely even able to process them before she wound up here.]
After you got away, I imagine Silco rescued Jinx and gave her Shimmer to help her heal. [Just like the Shimmer medicine she gave Vi, to heal her, way back when.]
Jinx kidnapped us. She was... worse. More unstable than before. Her eyes were pink, like Shimmer. Vi tried to talk sense in her, but her and Silco just started arguing and... Jinx shot him. Silco died, and... Jinx used the weapon they were powering with the gemstone. On Piltover. On the Council.
[She knows he's probably going to have a million follow up questions, especially given the fact that she's already told him that Silco is here too, but she didn't want to throw too much on his plate to process at one moment.]
