Controlling a majority of the world’s lands is the militarily mighty Niflheim, an aggressively expanding imperial war machine. At present, the world is divided between two warring states. Our story takes place in the land of Eos. Dubbed the Kingsglaive, they fight relentlessly against Niflheim, empowered by the magic of their sovereign. King Regis assembles a force of mighty warriors to combat the imperial menace. From that day until this day, Tenebrae has been gripped in the iron fist of Niflheim, sworn enemy of Lucis. The Niflheim attack was an attempt on the lives of the visiting Lucian royalty. In a mere instant, the whole of Tenebrae was ablaze.

It was then that the fires came, everywhere and all at once.

Mother, brother, and I, the royalty of Tenebrae, had all welcomed their visit. He made the long journey together with his father, King Regis. Amid the escalating war, Prince Noctis of Lucis had come to Tenebrae to seek healing for a grievous injury. Insomnia alone, the Crown City and last bastion of Lucian defense, remained beyond Niflheim reach for many years. To defend itself, Lucis raised a magical wall, the strength of which comes from the Crystal itself. As the years passed, Niflheim marched on nearby nations, driven by its unsurpassed technology. And Niflheim, a military empire of vast machinery made strong by the might of its magitek. Lucis, a peaceful kingdom of great magic kept safe by the power of the Crystal.

But in time, the promise of its power brought war to our lands. Lunafreya’s opening narration from “Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV”įor centuries, the sacred magic of the divine Crystal blessed our world and its people.
