Well, I certainly wouldn't mind the company. [Read: of course you can come. But he's going to carry all the bags they need, or they'll just shove it in armiger and let Noct collect the carrots if any spill.]

I don't think that would keep his attention, really. Unless it is a book about fishing. [He's not sure what other book managed to keep Noct's attention when he was younger though. Political science certainly didn't.] Unfortunately, the lake isn't in good condition for the sport itself... [Ignis trails off. Now that was something he knew Noct loved to do and he can't do it here. Just watch the water, wistfully.]

Yes. Especially as of late, things have been escalating with forest spirits. I am not sure what is going on within the forest, but spirits keep acting out. [First hallucinations, then mass thievery. It was actually a bit worrying.]
