Chapter I

*3 years later*

I woke with a start, my hair damp, and my body cold with sweat. I took several deep breaths trying to calm myself down. " It was just a dream, it was just a dream" I told myself repeatedly trying to calm my nerves from the images that I had just seen moments before. These dreams had been happening ever since the night of the accident 3 years ago, and had only gotten worse since the attack on Tenebrae. I got out of bed and walked over to the large terrace I had that looked over all Insomnia. I stepped outside into the cool morning air and breathed it in. I look out over the city thinking of how beautiful it was with the sun just peaking over the horizon. I closed my eyes and thought back to the day we returned from Tenebrae. When we arrived back in Insomnia, my father and the council decided that they need to attack Niflhime. They needed an army that would protect our borders of the land that remained and if possible reclaim them.

Out of this what my father dubbed the Kingsglaive was born. The council had discovered that some of our people outside insomnia could control our magic. The council brought them in, some we're orphans others had family's. They were blessed with magic from my father by the crystal. As long has he lived they would have the power to fight back. I sighed and opened my eyes. That had happened such a long time ago and the glaive had been successful in keeping Niflhime at bay, but at a great cost. I was pulled from my gloomy thoughts by a knock at the door. "Come in" I said. The door opened to reveal my personal servant Aro. "Good morning your highness, did you sleep well" she asked. I turned and smiled at her " As well as one can expect for me Aro" I said walking back in from outside.

Aro had been assigned to take care of me after the accident. Her father was my father's personal servant and her cousin, Ignis was my brother Noctis. Aro walked over to me and held my face in between her hands and studied my face. By the look in her eyes I looked a lot worse then she would admit. She sighed and walked toward my bed and started making it. For the past three years, I had been plagued by visions or dreams, personally I preferred to call them nightmares, that made it difficult for me to fall asleep and or want to go to sleep. During those three years Aro had been called many a time in the middle of the night because of my screaming and tried to help me calm down. "Did you take the sleep medication before going to bed" she asked. In the beginning Aro with my fathers blessing, gave me sleeping pills which for a while helped, but like all good things it must end. "Yes Aro I did, but I've told you before, the pills aren't working anymore" I said as I walked into my closet beginning to get dressed for the day. "HUM, maybe the dosage needs to be upped again" she said. I sighed "Maybe" or" maybe you should tell the king, he has a right know maybe he can help" Aro said. I let out a frustrated sigh "Aro we talked about this" I said slipping on a black skirt. Aro was the first one I told about what was happening and I told her to keep it a secret from my father for the time being. Aro sighed again "I know but, if the dreams are getting worse I do believe it is high time you tell him Lana, he has a right as your father to know what's going on."

Once I had finished getting dressed, I walked over to my vanity and began working on my hair and face. Looking at myself in the mirror, I stopped and noticed I did look awful. I sighed "I have thought about it, but my father is always busy and I hardly ever see him" I said. "Also I just don't want to worry him". Aro laughed " he's your father and a father's job is to worry about his children whether he be king or not". I smiled as well and went over to grab my books and bag. I walked toward the door "Breakfast is waiting for you down stairs" Aro said. I looked back at her and smiled "Thanks" I said and then walked out the door and into the hallway and down stairs toward breakfast.

Once there I found my brother sitting there already eating breakfast. I took my place at the table and a maid brought me my food, I dug in. Good morning I told Noctis in between bites of food. "Morning Sis, how was your night" he asked. Besides Aro, Noctis also knew what was going on with me, and just like Aro, I told him not to tell father. I sighed "it was fine how about yours" I asked. Noctis looked at me and then sighed "mine was fine". I looked around " will father be joining us" I asked. "I'm sorry princess but he had a meeting to attend and he will not be here this morning" stated Nocts bodyguard from the corner. "Thank you, Gladio" I said, he nodded back in response. Another thing that happened after Tenebrae was that both me and Noctis were assigned bodyguards. Gladio was Nocts and mine was Cor for a short time but I had recently learned that a glaive member would be assigned to me to take Cor's place. When both me and Noct finished breakfast, we headed down stairs to the car that would take us both to school. We got in the back and Gladio got up front with the driver. Ignis sat across from both me and our brother. "Morning Ignis" I said, "Good morning princess Solana" he said and the car pulled away from the citadel.

On our drive to school it was silent. I looked out the window looking at the scenery, until Noctis spoke " so you going to tell me what it was about" Noct asked. I sighed and turned and looked at him. "It was the same dream as always nothing more" I lied not wanting to recall the dream I had. Noct sighed "I know your lying, you normally don't look this bad after the normal dream" he stated. I cursed under my breath, he was always observant when it came to me. One thing that had changed when I woke up from the coma was the fact that I was now plagued with images that became nightmares. I said nothing and resumed looking back outside. Noct sighed and said "Ok if you don't want to tell me ok, but Lana you need to tell father what's going on he needs to know." "I know and I will tell him" I said. We pulled up at school and Gladio got out and opened the door for us. We both got out and walked toward the building. Noct was right in the fact my dream was different that night.

The final bell rang and Noctis and I met out front waiting for our ride. The royal vehicle pulled up and Ignis got out and opened the door for us. We both slid in and were silent for a good five minutes before I broke the ice. "So how was school" I asked Noct. "Same as usual, what about you" he asked. " Class was good" I said "I learned about the old kings today". Noct nodded his head and then returned his gaze to the window. I looked at my twin, and sensed something was off. " did something happen today? " I asked, " it was fine" he said, I gave him a loom that basically said cut the crap and tell me. He sighed and turned to face me "I met a boy at school today who asked to be my friend" he said. "Noctis that's great" I said. My brother and I had a hard time making friends with people due to the fact of who we were.

All the kids at school asked question about what it was like living in the castle, how many servants we had, and all these other questions that were pointless. Most of the time Noct and I tried to go places a hide during lunch just so we could get away from the group of people that constantly surrounded us. "Yes, well I told him no" he said turning to look back outside the window. "What why?" I asked him, he shrugged "I just don't want to deal with that". I sighed "Noct that is not a valid reason for not wanting to be friends with someone" I told him with an edge of annoyance in my voice from the way he is acting. "Whatever" he said, I let out an anger breath and look out the window. When we arrived at the Citadel I got out of the car and head toward the elevator, with my brother and Ignis trailing behind. Once inside I hit the button and the elevator went up. I stood in the corner of the elevator feeling sad for the boy who my brother turned down and annoyed at Noctis for the way he responded to him. Once the door opened I walked out and took a right heading up to my room.

Once in my room I threw my book bag on the floor and went and laid on my bed. I looked up at the canopy thinking about my day. I was lost in thought we a knock came at my door. "Your highness, dinner is ready" said the voice outside my door, "Thank you" I said as I walked in to my closet to get changed in to comfier clothes. I walked to my door and opened it to reveal a guard standing outside waiting for me. When we arrived at the dining room my brother and father were already seated. My father greeted me with a smile as I walked over and gave him a quick hug before taking my seat. A plate of food was set before me and all three of us began eating.

It was quiet for several minutes before our father broke it "What did you both learn in school today" he said looking at my brother and I. "I learned about the kings of old and about the six in my literature class" I said excitedly. I have always had an interest in the legends and myths about the old kings and the gods of Eos. "Very interesting, I didn't know the still taught that" my father said smiling at my enthusiasm at the topic "and what about you Noctis?" He asked my brother. "Lots of stuff" he said, my father sighed and shook his head. Ever since we were little the relationship between our father and us had been strained. However, after the accident that had both placed Noctis and I in a coma for three weeks, our father made an immense effort to try and repair the relationship. I was skeptical at first but after a couple of months after waking up I began accepting the efforts that my father was doing, and tried my best to help with rebuilding a relationship with him. My brother however, was still skeptical and didn't really try. Him and I had talked about it multiple time, and he told me that if he wanted to better the relationship now he should have done it before we were injured.

The rest of dinner was passed in silence. Noctis had excused himself first and left the room. I had just excused myself and was about to follow my brother when my father spoke. "Solana, can you come here for a minute?" he asked. I turned to look at him and nodded and then returned to my seat. "Solana, are you feeling alright?" He asked, I looked at him confused. "I'm fine father" I said, the look on his face told him that my response didn't convince him. He sighed "Solana, I had a talk with Aro today" he said which caused me to jump slightly in my chair. "She told me you have been having trouble sleeping for a while now, is this true?" he asked. I shifted my gaze to my lap, and clasped my hands together. I was mad at the fact that Aro told my father about my sleeping problem. Well if my father asked her to tell him than there was nothing she could to about it I thought. I sighed "Yes, what Aro told you was true", I looked up at my father and saw him staring at me and nodded at me to continue. I took a shaky breath "I have been having these nightmares for a while now. They short of started after the accident, but in the beginning, they were only broken images, so they weren't as scary" I said.

My father's face was unreadable, but his eyes showed a hint of sadness behind them. I looked away from him and returned my gaze to my lap as I continued. "But ever since we left Tenebrae, the nightmares have been getting worse, they are not just broken images anymore, there are…I don't know what they are" I said. "Do your nightmares vary?" My father asked calmly. I shook my head, "No it's been the same nightmare for a long time now" I said in a whisper, a chill running through my body as I recalled the images that have been seared into my brain. "What do you see" My father asked me quietly. I looked up at him again. "I see everlasting darkness, where monsters and daemons have conquered the land" I said.

It was silent, for a longtime. My father's face was still unreadable, but the look in his eyes had change. Instead of sadness, they showed a great sorrow, I looked down again. "Solana, look at me" I looked up at him "Thank you for telling me" He finally said. He got up and walked over to me and knelt beside me. He pulled me into a hug "Solana, from now on I want you to tell me about your dreams ok" He said in a low voice. I looked at him confused, He met my gaze and smiled down at me. "You and your brother are the greatest gift I could ever ask for" He said. He stood back up and told me that I was dismissed. I got up and went to leave, but before leaving the room, I ran over to my father and gave him a hug, "I love you father" I said, he hugged me back and told me he loved me, and then I left the room and began to walk back to my room.

I was just about to enter the elevator, when I heard a noise coming from down the hall. Curious, I followed the sound down the hall and found myself standing in front of the door to the training room. I walked closer and saw that it was full of children doing hand to hand drills against one another, with members of the Glaive standing around watching them. I hide behind the door and peaked around the door looking at the scene before me. Children of all ages were doing mock fights with one another. This is what the glaives did with all new recruits, before they were given magic from my father. My eyes scanned the room, looking at all the various groups of people that had been recruited to protect our kingdom, from their homes that had been claimed from the empire. A wave of sadness washed over me when I thought about what these people and their families have been through.

I scanned the room one more time before leaving when my eyes landed on a boy who caught my attention. He was practicing with another one of the recruits while having one of the senior glaive members watching him. He looked to be around my age with dark medium long brown hair that was shaved on both sides of his head giving a sort of mullet, with two small braids on either side of his hair. He was tall and had a pale complexion. His face still had a hint of childhood left on it, but you could tell it would soon disappear. The one thing that was the most startling about this features were his eyes. They were a light blue, but they were cold and held a hardness that I've only ever seen the older glaives possess.

The boy was working on some hand to hand combat training with another kid who was a girl with long black hair that was pulled up into a messy bun, she was pale but her body was toned and lean. Both showed great technique in the drills they were preforming. One of the older glaives told them all to stop, and that they were done for the night and to return to the barracks. All the recruits saluted and then filed out of the door on the opposite side of the room. The boy began to walk away when he suddenly frozen in place. His eyes snapped in my direction and for a moment our gazes met. The intensity from his gaze caused me to duck back behind the door and remain frozen in that spot. "Nyx, you coming" someone yelled from back inside the training room. "Yeah coming" they boy replied and then I heard footsteps getting farther away and then the door close signaling they had left. I peeked back into the training room and saw that it was empty. Satisfied, I turned and made my way back to the elevators, where I hit the button to return to my room.

The elevator doors closed and I let out a breath that I didn't realize I was holding. How had he know that I was watching him I though as the doors opened on the floor in which my room was located on. I continued to ask myself that question all the way up to my room, until I let out a sigh and shook my head. "It doesn't matter" I whispered to myself as opened the door to my room and saw that Aro was standing there waiting for me. "Hello, your majesty" she said, I looked at her and let a smile come to my face. "Good evening Aro" I said as I made my way over to my closet. Aro just stood there looking at the ground when I walked past. "Your majesty, I.. I wanted to apologize to you" She said, I turned to look at her. "Whatever for Aro" I asked, she continued to look at the floor but was shifting her weight from foot to foot.

"I want to apologize for betraying your trust" She said finally looking up at me. "The king asked me how you were doing, and I told him about you having trouble sleeping, and how I was concerned about it and…" before she could finish I had come over and given her a hug. She tensed under my embrace "Aro, thank you for telling him" I whispered to her. I pulled back and looked at her in the face "I'm glad you told him about it, it finally allowed me to tell him the whole story about what was going on" I said. "Also, if you hadn't told him, I don't think I ever would have, so thank you" I told her and then smiled at her to tell her I wasn't mad. She looked at me and then smiled and then nodded to. I smiled again and then returned to getting ready for bed. Once I emerged from my closet I climbed into bed that Aro had so graciously prepared for me, and then tucked me in. Just before I snuggled down into the covers, Aro handed me a glass of water and two sleeping pills. I gave her a look, and she gave me one of her own that told me I had no say in this. I sighed and took the pills and popped them in my mouth and then swallowed them with a gulp of water. Satisfied, Aro took the glass and then walked over to the door. "Good night your majesty" Aro said, "Night Aro" I said. She nodded and then left the room turning out the lights. I laid there in the dark, replaying the day's events in my head. I was glad I told my father what was happening with me, but it still terrified me what I was seeing and I kept wondering why this was happening to me. My mind then wandered to the boy with the blue eyes, and it made me wonder why he had such a hardness in his eyes. I sat their think about this until I started to feel the drugs taking affect. Final I closed my eyes and drifted off into darkness
