    Summary

    In an AU where Regis, not Noctis, is crippled in the Marilith attack, the prophecy changes, but it does not disappear.


    They called him the Battle Prince. For ten years, Noctis Lucis Caelum fought a war on three fronts, standing between his people and the dark with an army at his back and the power of a hundred dead kings in his hands. The war against the daemons is over. The victory carries a price no one ever warned him he would keep paying.

    Now King in his own right, beloved by a nation that sleeps soundly because he does not, Noctis finds himself hunted through the very power that crowns him. To uncover the truth, he and the three men who have spent a lifetime making sure he never carried the weight of the Crown alone must recover the last of the fallen kings' blades and finish a prophecy the world believed had already ended.

    It will demand everything the soldier in him knows, and the one thing he has never learned: how to let himself be carried.

    Summary

    Please, don't go where I can't follow…

    Magic; powerful enough to shape the world, but fragile as a butterfly. The slightest blip, the slightest unpleasant touch, and it can corrupt as much as it saves.

    When magic is the very essence of that soul... if one gets corrupted, is the other forced to follow?

    What antidote could there possibly be for a miasma that eats away at your very soul?

    (aka a 'no prophecy/royalty au' with a lot of surprises! And some chapters have art)

    Summary

    It's difficult, though, when Amicitia is wearing holes into the carpet behind him and Scientia won't stop calling Noctis' voicemail from the other side of the room while Regis sits too still and quiet on Cor's right.

    They don't know where Noctis is.

    Noctis is kidnapped. No one is happy about it, least of all Noctis himself. Especially when a car wreck kills his captors and leaves him stranded alone in the Lucian wilderness, struggling to make his way back home.

    Summary

    “You shouldn’t have been asked to do that,” Nyx muttered.

    The teen sounded defensive. “Its a shield’s job to protect their charge, to train them.”

    “Lucians,” Nyx muttered to himself. ‘Fucking Lucians.’

    Or,

    Due to a training accident, Nyx learns of the weight and burden placed upon noble and royal children.

    Summary

    Dreams demand sacrifice.

    For Jill Warrick, that sacrifice has been long nights, broken relationships, and betting everything on a bakery that might never succeed. For Clive Rosfield, it's bruises, broken bones, and fighting for a permanent place in the VHL.

    Neither expects their paths to cross. Neither expects a simple exchange to change everything.
