We finished talking with Cindy and headed into the garage to meet up with Cid to see what he had to say.

Cid: Crystal and the king's ring- what they been after all along...

Ignis: So all talk of peace was merely a pretext.

Noct: They played my father for a fool..

Cid: Don't kid yourself.

He reached for his trusty wrench

Cid: Reggie wasn't born yesterday.

Lucis got dealt a losin' hand, and your old man played it the best he could.

He saw this comin' a mile away, and he wasn't gonna go down without a fight.

in the end, though... Well, it just wasn't enough.

You need something else, you talk to Cor.

I can't even remember the last time I saw Reggie. Feels like a lifetime ago.

with that he gets up and walks out, leaving everyone to contemplate his words

 You think about Cid's words and the gravity of what you know suddenly makes a knot in your stomach. You think back to when you played out this story, you know Luna has the ring right now and awakening the Hexatheon for Noct's ascension. 

But you must steel yourself for the weight of what you know could crush yourself and those around you, for now you must fight to survive and try to save as many as you can.

Exiting the garage Cid lets you know that Cor is waiting in the tomb northwest of Hammerhead, and a short way past the Prairie Outpost, with that said you climb back into the Regalia and head out.

Ignis: They would have sealed the city by now.

Prompto: What do you think it's like inside?

Noct: I don't know, your guess is as good as mine.

Gladio: We'll see for ourselves in time.

Ignis: Indeed. Merely a question of when.

Prompto: Can't believe the Crystal's gone.

Gladio: The bastards took it all.

Noct: And we'll take it back.

Ignis: This is far from over.

They come to a heavy silence, the weight of the future and the events gone. For the guys the silence was for the unknown, but for you it's a reminder on what you have to deal with. As Ignis parks up, you see a rugged little rest stop nestled between the rocks and a small gathering of people looking for a safe place to rest at.

Ignis: This must be the outpost Cid mentioned.

Gladio: Looks like a hub for hunters.

Prompto: maybe they know something.

As they walk further into the hub, Prompto walks beside you.

Prompto: You ok Y/N?

Y/N: Huh? Oh kinda, I guess I'm trying to make sense of everything, the city was my home, and Nyx, he was like my brother, he gave me a necklace as a reminder that he'll always be with me, he had one too, I want to grieve Prommy, but i know we can't not yet.

Prompto was quiet he didn't say anything just took your hand in his and gave it a squeeze as if to say, I know, I'm here.   

We got closer to the main building of the hub and we saw a familiar face standing with a purpose, waiting. Monica.
