['Before nightfall'? Is someone there with him different after nightfall? Who's Cor, anyway? Clarus... Prompto's pretty sure, if he's remembering right, that's the King's Shield, kinda like Gladio's supposed to be Noct's? Familial connections aren't quite known at this point (or, more likely, remembered) but he's got the basic idea on that, but Cor doesn't crop up as a name he can remember. Then again, he's not sure what either of those people have to do with the conversation at hand!]
Understood. [Cor's brisk reply, though Noctis isn't there to see the complex, if subtle, expression on the Marshal's face as he looks to his old friend and king, asking without words if he's certain. Still, he isn't beyond knowing that someday, at some point, the young prince will have to go out into the world and meet his destiny and he's already older than he was when he had left with the lot of them back in the day.
Not as if going to a chocobo ranch is quite meeting destiny...]
Last time? [The words slip out of Prompto's mouth in confusion before he really thinks about it. It's not like Noctis talks about what happened that terrible night, though there's been brief mentions of having stayed in Tenebrae before. Prompto gives Noct the 'we can talk about it later' expression.]
