[ Endless daemons. Needing the crystal to save them -- in light of that the choice is clear, right? He says nothing for a long moment, only drapes his arm around him. Ardyn's logic baffles, but Prompto is miserable and here and he can't help but pull him into a half-hug. ]
Okay.
[ So that will be what he's walking towards, then, and he gives his shoulder a squeeze. The notion of endless daemons makes him sick to his stomach; when the moment comes, he has to be ready -- and right now he feels anything but. ]
[ So he... controls the daemons? Noctis is baffled, but takes it anyway -- and it seems the crystal is everything, isn't it? Walked away after creating that mess, using Prompto as bait. ]
[Prompto forces a breath out through his nose, looks up, and makes the universal wordless "IUNNO???" noise.]
For shits and giggles, dude? It wasn't for the Empire, I can tell you that! The Emperor was dead, whole towns turned into daemons because of their experiments, I dee even kay.

He made you. He separated us on purpose. Told you you needed the Crystal to save us. There were a lot of daemons, man, they were, like... endless.

Did he... hurt you after that? Any of you?

The daemons only fought us long enough we couldn't reach you in time. After that, they just. Didn't care.
