    Summary

    Once upon a time, a prince was born amidst a long war which prophecy claimed he was fated to end. However, in an effort to prevent the prophecy from ever coming to light, a man betrayed his kingdom and kidnapped the young prince, and spirited him far away. The king searched far and wide for his son, but the boy was never found.

    Sixteen years later, rumours reached the kingdom of a young hunter who could use magic, a skill afforded only to the royal family and their servants. Convinced that the hunter was not simply a missing soldier, the king sent two of his most trusted men to find this young hunter and bring the lost prince home.

    Summary

    There wasn’t much of his dad left to Noctis.
    The Regalia, the one thing left in this world that still carried the scent of Dad’s embrace. And the little Carbuncle figurine that reminded him how Dad had always watched over his sleep, promising sweet dreams to him. They made him feel safe and protected. They were his safe havens, his treasures, because that was all that was left of Dad. If he lost them...
    If he lost them it was like losing his dad all over again.

    Noctis loses his childhood keepsakes.

    Summary

    Noct hates being laid out like this. Everyone else hates seeing him like this and not being able to help as much as they wish they could. Ignis is probably berating himself for not having a pharmacy of painkillers on hand even though they’ve been painfully low on money for weeks; Gladio doesn’t have anything to attack, and it’s not like he can defend Noctis from his own body; and the best Prompto can do is try to distract him.

    Which isn’t nothing, considering the way Noctis clenches his jaw when Gladio finally lets go of his hand and moves to help him start stretching out his lower back. Prompto has seen Noctis do these stretches before, plenty of times, and with unfortunate and increasing frequency on the road. In what seems like a never-ending stream of fighting for their lives, crappy motel beds, and too many nights camped out on havens, it has been happening more and more frequently. Gladio has to help Noctis bring his right knee up to his chest and hold it there. Prompto refuses to wince at the way Noct’s fingernails dig into the back of his hand. Instead, he lifts their hands together and turns them so he can kiss Noct’s knuckles.
