"Did you hear? The Rocx academy, the resistance, and the remaining tower is planning an attack on the abyss. Do you want to join them as well?"
The King of the western empire asked his loyal advisor and the duke who had been loyal to him forever. The news of the abyss's collapse had reached their ears as well and most of the nobility in their kingdom had freaked out.
It was such a tough time when no one knew what to do. No one had ever thought that a day like this would come.

The duke remained tight-lipped, his eyes not meeting his king's. He wanted to join that central alliance but he did not want to betray his king for his wish.
"I know you want to go Noctis, so you should head out. Be careful out there and come back alive."
Noctis flinched at being caught by his king with his thoughts but he had finally gotten permission to go out.
