    Summary

    Ravus levels Ignis with a stare. "You are asking me to walk into the heart of a nation who wants my head, to save the life of the man responsible for the destruction of my home."

    "Lady Lunafreya wished for Noctis to live," Ignis replies. A low blow, he knows, to invoke the Oracle's name now. But Ignis' first duty is, and will always be, to Noctis.

    Ardyn takes Noctis to Gralea, and Ignis and Ravus roadtrip through Niflheim to find him.

    Summary

    Gladio raps the table twice, then says in the higher acolyte’s voice, “Adept Sancus, you have visitors.”

    “Come in,” Ignis says, after a half-second’s doubt. He does not try for anyone’s voice but his own.

    “Wisdom check,” Gladio says.

    Ignis rolls his d20 and adds his proficiency to it. “Fifteen.”

    “The two strangers before you are clearly experienced adventurers, or maybe mercenaries, based on the weapons they carry and the wear and tear on their armor and other gear. They’re successful at it, too, because they seem well-fed, in good health, and have all of their limbs. The woman is a little taller than the man, though they seem of age and are similar enough in coloring and facial structure that you wouldn’t at all be surprised if they were related.”

    Ignis hums at that information, considers the backstory he crafted with Gladio, and asks simply, “Has Mother hired you to kill me?”
