[Noctis makes a face at that, defensive and a little annoyed.]
I'm not scared. [He hesitates, and then adds reluctantly,] Just... never left the city before. Where I'm from it isn't safe after dark.
[Though there is some wildlife within the walls of Insomnia, the daemons can't get in. If this place works more or less the same way, it... should be okay. He kind of wishes Gladio were around, though. He's still lacking training in a lot of areas.]
[Correct on both counts, though he does look a little embarrassed for it.]
My dad's... really protective. [Overprotective it feels like sometimes, but considering the daemon attack and assassination attempts, it's a valid concern. Lucian royalty are a limited and valued commodity, and there's no nice way to describe it.]
[ Her gaze remains upon him for a second or two after he gives his answer, and then she takes a few steps forward, leading their way. ]
Lucky you, you've got someone who has experience with the great outdoors. [ Mythra turns partway to look back at him, tossing her hair over her shoulder. She smiles confidently. ] Even if we do get stuck out there at nightfall, you don't have to worry. Consider me an expert in camping.
You're in good hands.
[ Good hands, she says, when they both nearly fell out a tower just an hour ago... ]

“More than the usual?” she’s about to ask, but then stops herself. There’s no point of reference of what’s usual between different universes.
What he says about never having left the city is unusually, however.
Maybe he’s just a city boy. ]
Not a big explorer, huh?
