I promised your father that I would do everything in my power to help you regardless of the consequences, and I meant every word of it. I'm glad that I was able to help you, even just a little... I'm also glad you didn't have to see me the way I was.
[ She trails off, because she wishes she could have done so much more than what she'd done. But she can't go back and fix things or change them, neither one of them can. All they can do is move forward; at the very least, he's not completely alone in his journey and that's something she's grateful for.
His grip tightens, and she knows. She knows that he hasn't had a chance to properly mourn -- not for Insomnia and his people, not for his father, and now not for her. Noctis hasn't had a break in all of this, and he probably won't get one for a while until everything is over. Her hope for him is a bright future full of love and life, because if anyone deserves it it's him. ]
I wanted to meet them, too... I always enjoyed the stories and pictures you would send me. [ She smiles fondly, recalling the words written on their shared pages. She'd read over them enough time she's pretty sure she's got every last letter and word memorized at this point. ] It brings me great comfort and joy to know that you have them. They all seem wonderful. I especially wanted to meet Prompto.
[ She's had dealings with the blond before, after all, when he'd helped Pryna. She pushes that thought away for a moment, focusing instead on his question. She's got no idea how any of this is possible, but right now she's grateful that the Gods have seen fit to pull her from the afterlife and into this crazy place, especially now that Noctis is here, too. ]
It has been a bit of a challenge adjusting, but everyone is very nice and extremely helpful. I've no idea how it's possible, because I was in the beyond. I remember that very clearly. When I woke up here, I was in the same dress I was wearing that day in Altissia, except I had no wounds and... I don't know how to explain it. I've only got one scar from that day out of everything.
[ She doesn't understand any of it, how this place works or why anyone is here, but she's not going to look a gift horse in the mouth either. She squeezes his hand reassuringly again, lips curling up into another smile. ]
Do you know something wonderful about this place, though? Not a single soul here knows who we are. Right now, you and I are just normal people... we are not King and Oracle. We are just Noctis and Luna.
[ And that's something she can appreciate, not having the weight of the world on her shoulders and something to worry about all the time. No one calls her princess here, no one even thinks of her as royalty or treats her as such and she's glad. ]
