Yeah. "Interesting". [He knows he means actual magic and not the mages, but that's what he associates it with, and he has Thoughts about the treatment of mages here.] Have you heard about the Circles and everything that happened with them?
I have heard. It sounds terrible. I take it your lady love was forced into
one of those towers? [There is a slight tease in the term 'lady
love' but otherwise he treats the subject with the weight it
deserves.]
Uhhh... the short of it? Kirkwall Circle was super bad, oppressed the mages to the point where an apostate blew up the Chantry to kickstart a battle. Lot of people died. [It's drastically simplifying it, but even Prompto doesn't know everything.] The knight-commander of the Templars called for an annulment of the Circle - meaning they kill every mage in there. They all had to fight for their lives and flee.
For instance, you've never pushed me to speak of things I would rather leave unsaid. [He doesn't need to gesture to his face, they both know how little Ignis has really shared about what happened to his eyes. It's a marvel he's even alluding to it now.] That has made me feel comforted. I feel no pressure to share things I would rather not.
At the same time, I know if I ever did feel the urge to relive the worst moments I can remember, to get them off my chest so to say, that you would be there to listen.
[Awww. Well now he feels all warm and fuzzy. Prompto knows what it's like, though, to not want to talk about things. That's why he doesn't push too much. Sometimes he nudges, but he tries not to go too far.]
You're gonna make me blush, Iggy.[Though, his smile falls a bit as he continues: ] That said, if you are ever ready to talk about stuff, you know where to find me. A lot's happened back home.
Yeah. I kinda wish we had an Inquisition-like force back home to help turn things around. Though I don't know who could have stood up to the empire. Guess if there was a time to stop them, it was a long time ago.
Might be easier said than done. This place... I know Eos has a lot of problems, but a lot comes from the empire and what they've done. Here? It's like a thousand different threads, all entangled with each other. Threads with teeth and a lot of prejudice.

Well, that makes me officially not entirely looking forward to going back home.
