[come here you're getting a hug]

...Can you tell where she might be as far as her memories are concerned? I think I've placed Lunafreya, but I'm not sure about Prompto.

[serrata]

[ ah, a hug. even more deadly and inescapable than the patented lucian headpat(tm) ]

Not yet. She said she was "at school" and with "classmates" but that doesn't really tell me much. Miki-san was with us for a few months before we had to leave the school so it could be anywhere between then and when we found her.

[ Maybe with any luck once Miki comes out of her shell a bit more, she might get a better idea. For all the good it'll do. ]

What about Lunafreya-san?

[scourgingstars]

She mentioned Nyx Ulric--that rather solidly places her before the fall of Insomnia, which was essentially when this whole thing began ten years ago.

[this sure fucking sucks don't it]

[serrata]

[ SURE FUCKING DOES ]

So she still has all that to remember...

[ She draws in a long, slow breath. All that and worse if Ardyn's right about the point she comes from. ]

What about Prompto-san? What is it that's throwing you off?

[scourgingstars]

He hasn't said much in the way of specifics. It...sounds like he thinks he's from right after Altissia fell and Lunafreya died, but I can't figure out when he might actually have come here from. He's far younger than he should be for either myself or Noctis, so the absolute latest that could potentially place him to my knowledge would be after-

[...]

...after the sun stopped rising for a decade or so.

[serrata]

[ ... Shit. ]

So that's going to be the last thing he remembers. He's going to think that's where it all ends?

[ God. When they save them -- because that's a when and not an if she tells herself -- how are they ever going to explain all this? ]

Why take him from somewhere [ somewhen? ] like that instead of lining him up with you and Noctis?

[scourgingstars]

I don't know--he could be from slightly earlier than that, there's no way for me to tell like this.

[THIS IS FINE]

As for why, I can't begin to guess. But I also hardly claim to understand most things the network does.
