Summary
THIS IS NOT A PODFIC in the usual sense. It is an audio dramatization of the original fic. The characters are voiced by talented volunteer voice actors, and the scenes are accented by sound effects and FFXV music. Call it the budget version of a movie adaptation... if movie adaptations were completely controlled by the author and actually came out true to the source material.
This is the story of a family torn asunder by the death of a father, and everything that came before. Featuring dad!Regis and a twin sister for Noctis.
This fic is two stories twisted together: one follows the game's timeline and tells the story of a prince and princess coming to terms with death and destiny, while the other is the story of their lives before and everything that leads up to the beginning of the game. As such, it features all of the chocobros and associated game-time characters, but also pre-game characters, like Regis and Clarus (Cor, Nyx, and others occasionally mentioned, but I don't tag them because they play small parts).
Warnings: Depression, mild references to a suicide attempt, thoughts of suicide.

This is not a happy ending. This is not the struggle until dawn. This is 10 years of falling further into darkness.
After bidding farewell to her twin brother, Reina Lucis Caelum is resigned to surviving ten long years of darkness awaiting his return, but with the rest of the royal line gone, all of Eos seems determined to dump Lucis in her lap: crown, ring, and all. It's a shame that no one thought to mention her estranged ancestor with an affinity for daemons who seems to know more about her than she does, herself.
