The mention of dragons sent a spark through Ignis's chest. Dragons were an integral part of Lucian iconography. The Kingsglaive still wore one. Bahamut was associated with the Lucian crown; it had been strange to see him depicted on the lowerworld, stranger still to see him in the flesh as it were at the hands of Kadaj. "I think you'd enjoy Lucis," he said, warmly. "It seems those stories aren't far wrong."

Perhaps some of the diaspora had retained their stories. There were tales of small factions that had split from the rest early on in Lucis's history, striking out to nearby lands. Lucis had been extremely insular for much of its life, but it wasn't a huge leap to think that if they had made it, others might have too.

"We're asking as many as we can," Ignis said, looking at the blue haired man. "You come with a recommendation, if there are others you can recommend we'll certainly take them into consideration."
