MAJOR SPOILERS!
I continued the story after fishing a little bit in Altissia. I met with the serious woman, the head of Altissia I think. Her name is Camelia and she had a big old interview set up with Noctis, the King of Lucis. It was a really cool scene because I had to pick dialogue choices befitting a kind. It kind of felt like a cheap Mass Effect and it was great. I did pretty well with her I think, and promised to protect her citizens from the consequences of waking Leviathan. I also promised to take on the Empire. In exchange, she promised not to interfere and to keep Lunafreya safe. She seems to be playing games somehow, but I had no choice but to trust her.
The next scene was fucking incredible. Lunafreya wakes Leviathan, the goddess of water, and attempts to communicate with her. It goes relatively well, and she holds Levianthan's tsunami at bay until Noctis gets there to battle her. Leviathan is absolutely gigantic, dwarfing even Titan. She lifts herself up through the tides and casts a looming shadow over Altissia. Fighting her was amazing.
After a few hits and parries on the goddess, Lunafreya uses the last of her strength to grant Noctis incredible power. He's in full Armiger mode, with infinite MP and infinite health. The battle itself wasn't very difficult, considering health and MP weren't an issue, but it was still a long one. When I beat Leviathan though, the worst happened.
Chancellor Ardyn Izunia showed up at the worst time and confronted Luna. After a short conversation, he stabs her in the chest with a big dagger and leaves her to bleed to death. Noctis runs to her aid, but they both get swept up in the tidal wave left by Leviathan.
There was a very touching scene here where Noctis is in kind of a dream and he says goodbye to Lunafreya as she sinks into the depth of an unknown body of water. She gives him the oracle's ring then fades into the abyss, gone forever.
Noctis wakes up from a short coma. Gladio explains that he and Lunafreya were swept away by the tide. Noctis was found shortly after with the ring in his possession. Even worse, Ignis was gravely injured during the battle, so much that he is now blind... I hope his eyesight returns because we fucking need him in battle! Noctis is very sad, and pretty depressed. Gladio tries to knock some sense into him, but to no avail.
The team boards a large train, heading towards the Empire so they can confront them head on. We rode the train in silence, the atmosphere is really tense. Gladio wants Noctis to snap out of it and do his job as King, for the sake of Lunafreya and Ignis, who sacrificed a lot to help him win the battle against Leviathan... We reached a new area that seems to have only a couple of shops and a dungeon. I nabbed a new pistol from the vendor, then stopped playing.
I am really shocked at the events of the Leviathan battle, and I'm surprised that Lunafreya is dead. I really hope Noctis wakes the fuck up and does his job.
