It Was Always Enough

by Faulty Paragon

With a hundred flags flying in the fields and the sun rising over the horizon, Noctis' spirit finally knew that while he hadn't done everything he could've done for his people, he had done enough. It was enough. -a drabble collection inspired by 'Too Much is Never Enough' by Florence and The Machine for FFXV's soundtrack.

A/N: A short set of drabbles inspired by 'Too Much is Never Enough' by Florence + The Machine for the FFXV OST. I love this song to death, and this drabble set is one that has been long overdue. All prompts will be lines from the song. Let me know what you think!

It Was Always Enough

And the crown it weighs heavy

'Till it's banging on my eyelids

xXx

The ring upon his palm is no crown, but it is weightier than any band could've ever been upon his brow. He curls his fingers around metal, clutching harder and harder until lines become engrained in his very skin, the fabric of his being.

He is the king, but he doesn't want to touch this object of the gods. Its power terrifies him.

Noctis picks it up with trembling hands, holds it ready, mere millimetres from slipping onto his finger.

He hesitates. The train lurches forward. He drops the ring onto his lap. He leaves it there, and cries alone.
