the Last King
Author Notes: A Noctis Centric piece, I read somewhere that Noctis believes he and probably other people who can see the light of Etro as well is dying. So this is mostly based off that theory. However it takes place sometime after Noctis & Stella conversation but before their battle
Disclaimer: I don't own Final Fantasy Versus XIII

I've come from a long line of kings.

My father was a king, like his father before him, and his before him. For the past thousand years someone in my family has always ruled.

But as for myself, I doubt I would even see past my twenty-second birthday, and this long line of kings would end with me. For I have no queen or child to past my lineage and birthright too, and I were to be truthful I don't want one.

For am I am on borrowed time, much like the princess from Tenebrae. Even though I don't necessary know when the day of my death and hers shall come. I know it is coming soon.

Sometimes I wondered why Lady Etro even decided to bring us back in the first place, if we are going to die before we are thirty.
But I don't regret the life that she has given me.

In fact I am entirely grateful for it, I have met three friends who doesn't look at me differently because I see the light of Etro, and have the ability to summon different types of weapons, and use magic.

Nor did I regret meeting her.

Ironically enough she has made me feel less alone. For I have never met a person like myself, and for a long time I thought I was the only one. As crazy as that may seem, but she is the first person that I've met that is like myself. Another person who can see the light of Etro.

I don't know what will happen to my kingdom after my death, even though I know I should start preparing my kingdom for the worse.

I get the feeling I shouldn't tell them quite yet.

I may not know many things about my future and the fate of my kingdom after my death, but I do know this.

I am the last king.

And my kingdom will survive.

With or without me.
