Gladio doesn't realize just how much he's asking of him. Couldn't, really - and he isn't one to really talk about the problem. Yet right now, that's all they got. Problems. The time difference, where the hell they really are, the situation back home... What a mess.
"After we split up..." Noctis starts from the top, keeping his voice low. "I went for the Altar. Prompto gave me a lift with some ride he pilfered from the Niffs. Halfway through the trial... Ardyn appeared at the Altar and stabbed Luna. She used up the last of her strength to help me survive the Tidemother's wrath and deliver the Ring."
He takes a steadying breath. "You'll... have to ask Ignis and Prompto what happened after that. I lost consciousness, so all I know is what I could get out of Ignis. All I know is, when I woke up, Ignis was blind and Luna was dead."
He shakes his head, feeling his throat closing up at the recollection.
"Not like this helps us now," he mutters, chuckling sardonically under his breath. He'd go on, but... getting choked up at a time like this wasn't going to help anyone. Especially when they need him to be their king.
