The second month of Promptos training progressed strangely quickly to the four friends. Since they where waiting on the cadets to start training missions their investigations where set aside, and they where cramming as much as they could about the duties Noctis had taken up. And exploring the former Kings office.

Some of the things they found where startling but harmless, like the confetti trap behind a false book that Gladio set off.

“What the hell!?” Gladio sputtered.

“That was probably meant for your grandfather.” Cor said calmly.

Some things where strange.

“Why is there a gold plated rubber duck in this potted plant?” Ignis asked, bemused.

“You would need to ask Regis' mother that, Aulea got it for her.”

Some where both awkward and traumatizing.

“Hey Cor, why is there an ink sketch of a naked woman posing on this desk?”

“Your grandfather had talent and your grandmother had an exhibitionist streak.”

Prompto had a headache. He had had a headache for three days. This headache was named ‘Noctis and Gladio are to stubborn to apologize to each other.’ He loved his friends, really he did, but this had gone on long enough. Even Ignis was starting to get annoyed, and he was Nocts main enabler. And when Prince Noctis ‘I’d rather get scurvy than eat a vegetable’ Lucis Caelum doesn’t notice his Advisor making a Vegetarian meal for lunch you know something needs to be done.

As they set up camp the Prince and his Shield started sniping at each other again and he snapped.

Noctis and Gladio yelped when they felt a hand snag them both by the elbow and a harsh jolt run through them. In a whirl they where at different ends of the caravan facing it.

“If you two are going to be acting like children than your going to be treated like one.” Prompto snarled as he took their phones. “Both of you sit there until you feel like apologizing to each other. It’s up to Ignis if he sends you to bed without dinner.

He stalked away from the embarrassed men to help Ignis finish setting up camp.

“You have never once sent your children to bed without dinner.” Ignis murmured

“They aren’t actually children. One missed meal isn’t going to hurt. And my kids have manners.” He muttered. Ignis snorted.

This is a partial list of all the organizations that are working at cross purposes in my Pull The Thread fic

Insomnia First- classic xenophobic hate group

Church of the Draconian- fanatics that think noctis is the chosen one and want him on the throne immediately (with their holy guidance of course.)

Adherents of the Divine Sword- fanatics that want every man, woman and child to go to war in a holy crusade against godless niflheim

Flames of the Infernian- want to wake ifrit to consume the word so it can be remade.

The Frost Brides- widows that join Shivas temple and vow chastity, active in community service

Titans Towers- male version of Frost brides. (Gender does not matter to either of these, it is mostly public perception)

The Tidecalled -pirates that claim to hear the Tidemothers voice and follow her orders.

Stormcallers- how do you tell one from a normal Galahden? you don't

Nif spy ring

Tenabre spy ring

Accordo spy ring

refugee suppression crime ring

the Eos mafia

"Hmm I can tell you a story if you like. Perhaps an old one? Let me tell you how Solheim shattered then."

Long ago when the World was whole there was a great island that housed all the earth surrounded by the endless Jade Sea. This Land was called Solheim after the great golden mountain in it's center, that cast the suns light all across the land be it day or night. In the day it was like twin suns and at the peak of the day when the sun was directly over it Eos the Sun Goddess rested on her daily travel and stopped to speak with those who came.

At night the Mountain of the Mothers cast back the light of the sun it captured during the day and lit the world with a soft glow. Every night Etro the Moon Goddess would meet her Moonsingers as they hunted through the darkness. On the nights when the Moon was dark Fenrir, Lord of the Hunt, defended the Mountain from Those Who Should Not Be.

It was during one of these nights that tragedy struck. Fenrir was betrayed by his closest friend, who's name is long lost, and fell to He Who Drinks Life casting the defending force into chaos. It started a century of war, for the Mother's Mountain housed a dark secret. It held the last remains of the Folly of Atlantis, a great Gate to the Outer Path taken by the Mothers after Leviathan vented her righteous Rage on the slaving Empire. The Chain-breaker had been unable to destroy it so handed it over to those who knew the danger.

Unfortunately for Solheim the Gate had already been used. It took centuries for the Other-kind to build enough power to get to the Gate, but they finally struck. They killed most of the Moonsingers, only a young initiate escaping by his Teacher almost drowning him as he through him in the Frozen Torrent, a great white water river that flowed down the mountain. His descendants would later go on to found Succarpe after the breaking.

The gate was thrown open and The Elder Gods, Ancient and cruel beings from beyond the Outer Path, could step though. Solheim fell to total war for a century before someone managed to close the Gate casting Them back to their Prison.

I don't know what she was called then but this hero was also a villain. She knew that 'The needs of the many outweigh the needs of a few. While it is a good thing that she saved the world, she did so by enslaving Titan and shattering the Mountain of the Mothers. It cast both Mother Goddesses into a deep slumber none could wake them from.

Titan in his chains of blood and sacrifice marched against the Other-kind and slew all who opposed him. She who bound him was joined by two friends: a Chosen son of Eos who's family had been the first to call for the Chain-breaker to Rage against Atlantis, and a Mage-Warlord who who hailed from a family of Etro's favored that had also earned the Favor of The Bloody Dragon when they Conquered Solheim after the Fall of Atlantis.

These three fought and fought finally reaching the Gate and the Earth-binder sent them to prepare for the last offensive. For she had not told them how she would close the Gate. She set her daughter, now old enough to help fight, to guard her while she cast her final great spell.

None know how the daughter survived or what the spell consisted of, but the results were obvious. Solheim Sundered in four pieces as Titan cast He Who Drinks Life back through the gate. She was Named Night Sword by Doomtrain who she bound herself to after seeing what her bloods gifts could do without some way to restrain them. The name eventually became Nox Fleuret.

The Warrior of Eos was with his people on what eventually became Galahd. He named himself Ulric after the loss of his love.

The Mage-Warlord led her people to what would become Lucis and her line named themselves after her upon her death and Became the Lucis Caelum.

All the world was reeling from the Sundering, which let something slip through.
