Summary
Massive floodlights at the rear of the main cavern illuminated a half-gutted ruin. Ancient stone brickwork and sunken, collapsed halls. Holes that marked uncovered corridors riddled the back wall. Ruined buildings that had stood forgotten in the cave for eons huddled before the darkened passages like gatekeepers; the Empire had appropriated many of these for their own purposes. The main generator sat in the center of the space, modified for underground use. Cables snaked away from the infernal pylon into nearby buildings and the excavated ruin. Somewhere far above was the cavern ceiling, but none of the lights below reached it, giving the impression of starless, eternal night.
The Bros are intent on doing as much damage to the Empire as they can, but the subterranean complex north of the Slough is an Imperial Base best left unbusted. A fight through a hoard of experimental MTs is just the opening act. An unknown horror, dredged out of the darkened ruins by Imperial hands, awaits an opportunity to deliver devastation upon any unfortunate enough to cross it. Ignis will keep Noctis safe regardless of the cost, but all of them must deal with the consequences.

Summary
"I'm afraid I cannot begin to fathom what goes on in that man's head," Ignis says toying thoughtfully with the patterned grey shawl draped around his shoulders. He continues after a pause, "he said I was, or mine was, a breed he had never encountered before. I suspect that must have something to do with it, but I'm not sure what he meant exactly."
Ignis and Prompto have a brief conversation about the nature of Daemons and the mysterious Chancellor, but Prompto gets a little side-tracked.
(A silly follow-up to "The Alstor Excavation" but it works fine as a little standalone scene.)

This is the original story for the "Black Flan" fic, which I am keeping here as-is for archival reasons. The updated and continued version can be found here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/31072157
