The call from Cindy earlier that day had run through the four boys' minds repeatedly until they finally reached Hammerhead. Cindy called Noctis earlier that day with a vague statement. Simply, “You should get here as fast as you can, Prince. It’s hard to explain… and slightly bloody.” The four boys immediately hopped in the Regalia and Ignis began the drive to Hammerhead. When they arrived, they instantaneously understood what Cindy had meant. The Princess, Noctis’s younger sister, Prompto’s crush, thought to be dead along with the King, was sat in a booth in Takka’s diner, unmoving and covered in dried blood and in a dissociative state. “She’s been here since yesterday. Hasn’t said a lick of a word neither. Pawpaw’s the one who recognized her when he went to get his morning cup of joe… said to call you boys right away.” Cindy told them, her eyes on the poor girl.
