["To save the world". Noctis knows what that really means; to give his own life for the sake of Eos. A sacrifice dictated by the gods, for his own existence to be crushed under the heel of destiny. He's too tired to feel angry about it these days. Too accepting to really feel anything other than guilty he hasn't completed the task, yet.
Even if the opportunity had been pulled out from under him, being brought here. Much like Nyx was, in the midst of his sacrifice. Because that's what it would've been, he's sure of it; none but a Lucis Caelum would be able to use the Ring, and that Nyx had even seen anything is surprising to him.]
That's pretty impressive, you know. That you lived to tell the tale, that you even saw anything.
[He sighs, setting the Ring back down and sliding it over back to Nyx. He leans back in his seat, then holds up his hand with his own Ring on it.]
It made its way back to me, in the end. So... thank you. For all that you did.
[All bittersweet sincerity from Noctis. The flash of gratitude is easy to read, easy to feel.]
