"I thought Noctis -- ?" Princes, kings, knights in shining magitek... It was a lot. Reno assumed, based on the other information -- and just taking a wild guess, really -- that the "king" who had arrived was Noctis' father. Who was now his son's age. Not awkward at all.

"Honestly, I don't know. There used to be a place on one world where people would wander into this forest and would disappear. Sometimes they'd come back and sometimes they wouldn't. No one ever really knew why they went, they just felt compelled to go. I imagine it's kind of like that -- just lost. But if I went into your memory, then maybe someone else would eventually come to save us too."
