Final Fantasy XV Part 1 - The Journey of a Bad Boy Band Begins! An armistice is declared between the warring nations of Lucis and Niflheim, ending the conflict that has raged over possession of the world's last remaining crystal. A peace treaty is finally drawn up, and as part of the agreements, Prince Noctis of Lucis and Lady Lunafreya of the imperial province of Tenebrae are to be wed. Before the treaty is to be signed, Noctis—accompanied by his friends Gladiolus, Ignis and Prompto—sets out for Accordo's capital city of Altissia, where the wedding is to take place. Shortly after their departure, it is revealed that the peace treaty was a ruse for Niflheim to invade Lucis. During the attack, the capital city of Insomnia is destroyed, the Lucian crystal is stolen, and King Regis, Noctis and Lunafreya are reported dead. Now on the run from Niflheim, Noctis is prompted by Cor to search for his family's hereditary weapons, which he must retrieve to rescue the crystal and fulfill his role as king. The group are also guided by Ardyn to the Astral Titan, who has been persuaded by Lunafreya to lend Noctis his power to help his quest after putting Noctis through his trial. During their travels, they hear rumors that the nights are growing longer, causing nocturnal monsters called Daemons to become more dangerous. Noctis and his group continue to travel across Eos, retrieving family weapons and meeting the Astral Ramuh with help from Lunafreya's spirit attendant Gentiana. Ardyn also continues to assist them, despite revealing true his identity. They eventually arrive in Altissia, where Lunafreya has sought sanctuary. Lunafreya awakens the Astral Leviathan so Noctis can share her power, and Leviathan begins going on a rampage, forcing Noctis to fight. Ardyn further disrupts the ritual by fatally stabbing Lunafreya, but she is able to awaken Noctis' powers, enabling him to defeat Leviathan before falling unconscious. In his dream, Noctis sees Lunafreya's spirit, who gives him the Ring of the Lucii. Noctis wakes to find Altissia in chaos, and that his companion Ignis was blinded during the battle. The group continue towards Niflheim's capital city of Gralea, with some friction being caused by Ignis' condition until he forces a reconciliation. Ardyn then appears and tricks Noctis into throwing Prompto from the train before it is attacked by Daemons. Depositing the rest of the passengers in Tenebrae, they continue on; during his time there, Noctis learns that Lunafreya was dying due to her contact with the Astrals, and that her brother Ravus intends to give Noctis Regis' sword. Passing near the body of the Astral Shiva on their journey, Noctis receives her blessing from Gentiana, Shiva's human form. Ardyn also appears again, revealing that both Prompto and the Crystal are in Gralea's main fortress, and that the crystal can destroy the Daemons. In Gralea, which has been overrun by Daemons, Noctis is separated from Gladiolus and Ignis and his powers are suppressed, forcing him to don the Ring of the Lucii and retrieve Regis' sword from Ravus, who was killed by the Daemons. Reuniting with his friends, the group continue to fight through the fortress and fight Iedolas and a resurrected Ravus, transformed into Daemons by Ardyn. Noctis is forced to go on alone, and finally reaches the crystal. Upon touching it, Noctis is absorbed into it. He learns the full truth from first the watching Ardyn, and then from the Astral Bahamut in the spirit realm. Noctis' true destiny is to become the True King, and sacrifice his life to purge Eos of the Starscourge and its accompanying Daemons by absorbing the Crystal's light and the power of his ancestors the Lucii. "Ardyn Izunia" is in fact Ardyn Lucis Caelum, a man who saved the world from the Daemons by absorbing them into himself two thousand years before, but was denied ascension by the Crystal due to this and ostracized by another chosen by the Crystal, Noctis' ancestor. Rendered immortal by the Daemon power, he has been seeking revenge on the Caelum line and the Crystal since that day, waiting for the True King to appear so he could destroy both. Nocits spends the next ten years within the spirit realm, absorbing the power he needs and preparing himself for his sacrifice. He is returned to the world near Insomnia, the capital of Lucis. He then reunites with his friends, who have been helping keep Daemons at bay as the entire world has plunged into everlasting night. The group head to Insomnia to confront Ardyn, and must fight the hostile Astral Ifrit. Noctis then fights Ardyn alone and kills him. Noctis then ascends the throne, absorbs the Lucii and the Crystal's light, and dies purging the Starscourge. In the spirit realm, with Lunafreya's aid, Noctis and the Lucii destroy Ardyn's spirit. In a post-credits scene, Noctis and Lunafreya reunite in the afterlife.
