The King And The Knight

The Epilouge

When he was still young, his father always tell him that one day he will become such a great leader to his own kingdom. Noctis was always a shy type, but his father knew that inside of him, he had such a good heart, which can lead the human races to a much and better future.

Not until one night, when Noctis himself was wandering alone at night due to the thunderstorm. He was trying to find his father to have some comfort, but instead he had found a room. One room that people never come in, or even come out. His father always tell him not to go through that door. Not until he was older and take over the throne. Behind that door was his responsibility. Not now, but until that day. The light managed to slipped through that door and it somehow welcoming him. The thunderstorm was still happening outside of his own palace but he didn't feel scared or frightened anymore.

Noctis knew if he goes beyond that door, a danger might be waited for him. He knew that his father will be worried sick about him. He is the only child in the family and he couldn't afford to lose him. Not after he promised his wife before she passed away that he will protect him at any cost, even with his own life if necessary. He reached and opened the door. Noctis was amazed with what he just saw. How could there is a crystal this huge in his own palace? His own home? He came nearer until the light from the crystal shine so bright that he was struck by the evidence of light coming from the crystal itself. 'Such a beautiful crystal'. He let his hand rest on it, feeling the warmth.

Suddenly the light shine even brighter than before. Somehow he saw a vision of his older self with a young woman with a rose coloured hair. They were standing side by side and save his kingdom from falling in the hands of the enemy. Not until that, he understand that now the crystal had chosen him, to be the guardian. And it has to be protected at any cost or circumstances. He fell asleep on the only chair in that room later after that.

The next day, King Regis was told that his son was not in his room. He was already panicked that he might had been abducted or even be killed. He told everyone in the palace to searched him. Later, Noctis was found by one of the servants. The servant told the king that he found him in a room where the crystal is. The king was shocked and he knew that his son will bear such an extreme responsibilty on his own shoulder at such a very young age.

Noctis could tell that he was totally fine. He didn't feel anything wrong. He also couldn't even remembered what happen last night when his father asked about his whereabouts. But the only thing that he remembered, was that woman. He will always remembered the colour of her hair. Her eyes was blue like his, but only much lighter in colour. He hoped that maybe one day he will finally meet her. He didn't have it high hopes though he could forget about it as he grows up, but it won't hurt to try.
