Summary
It should be easy. Simple. He just has to push with his hands and shift his legs, get his feet underneath him—but he can’t. He’s frozen, turned to ice, turned to stone. Fingers and face numb and floating away from him, fading out of existence. He’s a spectator in his own body. A prisoner.
Get up.
| An assassination attempt leaves Noctis struggling to stay present.

Summary
It’s not any easier. It’s harder. It’s worse. Noctis feels for that magic again, to let it build and swirl and flow, he tries to breathe it in and swallow it down and be one with it. It’s in his veins, in his head, in his heart, he was born with it, and so it should come to him as naturally as breathing.
He tries to push it through Ignis, from his own fingertips and into the warm skin in his grasp, the way he had with Gladio. It hurts to even try, it steals his breath away. And nothing happens.
| Noctis pushes himself too hard when he finally gives Ignis and Gladio access to his magic.

Summary
It happens so fast. One second he’s walking, minding his own business, one foot in front of the other. The next, he’s yanked backwards so suddenly he thinks he’s falling, slamming into something solid.
A hand slams over his mouth.
“Don’t move, or I’ll cut you,” a voice hisses in his ear.
| Noct is mugged while out by himself in the city.

Summary
Something bad happened in there. He doesn’t want to go, he doesn’t want to see, he doesn’t want to know. Let him stay and linger here in the light and the silence and the stillness, where he can drift away and remain weightless and untouchable.
But—
He needs to get moving.
Noctis wakes up injured and alone and with no idea what happened. He needs to keep going.

Summary
He can’t fight back the way his heart starts to thud harder in his chest, the way he can hear his pulse in his ear, the way it's suddenly so much harder to move. His shoulders and his arms feel heavy and weak, almost like an ache, and—
Damn it, he doesn’t need this right now. He doesn’t need this.
Noctis faints after a long, hard day.

Summary

“The others are coming soon.” Noctis tells him.
“Others - who?”
“The ones who hold far more ill temperaments than the rest of us.”
-----
When the previous Kings and Queen of Lucis begin speaking through Noctis everyone begins to scramble to find out why, especially as their attempts become more and more deadly to Noctis’ survival.

“So, what’s the plan, Your Highness?” Ignis asks, his eyes fixed resolutely on the dagger held between Noctis’ fingers, clearly wary of its presence.
“I don’t think you’re going to like it.” Noctis admits hesitantly.

After a long day of completing hunts, the gang get in over their heads after being overwhelmed by daemons out on the road, and Noctis is forced to resort to desperate measures to get them out alive.

Summary
On the way out in the road, the Chocobros get chased and attacked mid ride by one of the Empire's Imperial Dropships. Prompto, Ignis, and Gladio have to break a few driving laws to defend their Prince and get him to safety as quickly as possible and help him recover during the aftermath. Maybe things wouldn't have been as serious if Noctis didn't suffer with severe motion sickness and had to suffer through it the entire time.

Summary
Noct’s friends know using too much magic drains him. And they’re pretty great about giving him a moment to breathe when he hits stasis, or time to recover after summoning an Astral.
But the strain runs deeper than they know — and the costs are higher than they imagine.
Especially when Royal Arms are involved.
