The gesture isn't lost on him, though it has been some time since anyone on Eos has used it. Himself included. Most of the time his retinue simply fistbumped or high fived (Ignis and Prompto would always be the biggest nerds aside from him shh tell no one). He turns; just enough to reciprocate the gesture.

Trust for trust, after all. Besides, his status as the last king of Lucis was the worst kept secret.

"You can count on mine to do what they can as well. Our weapons may be stuck, but that hasn't stopped us before." Haha... ha... He's so glad there aren't any daemons here right now to be all 'bitch, you talking shit? Prepare to get hit'. Peace and freedom, though... Those two words strike home.

"Looks like we have something in common, then." He won't specify, but even without its power, the Ring feels heavier on his hand.
