Video 001: First Shot in the Dark
[ Alright let's see how this works! Prompto has his phone propped up in an area where he can get the angle just right while he records this. He wants to be able to show off the images he has after all. ]
Hey guys, so I know it's not the best quality video, sorry. This whole network thing is weird to get used to.
Anyways! Hi, I'm Prompto! Uh...I'm from a place called Eos, specifically I'm from the Kingdom of Lucis. Before I left there was this thing that has been referred to as a plague...it's called the Starscourge and it's like really bad. Basically it makes the nights longer. For a bout ten years before I got here...we didn't have any sunlight because of this stuff.
Because of that, we had a lot of these things,
[ He holds a picture that looks a lot like the monsters that have been around in the much darker areas ofthe castle. ]
They're called daemons. there are a few different types but....but they are all...
[ He pauses a bit, scratching at his worst before he looks back at the camera. ]
They are created when people or animals are affected by the Starscourge, basically they are parasitized by it and after a while they become daemons. The only cure that has been found was thanks to a person known as the Oracle. I used to know the one back home...well knew of her.
She was my best friends fiance and sort of a celebrity in her own way. Total sweetheart too.
Anyways, these daemons start off as people, like you and me...and then....then those people get sick...and if it isn't treated...well...then you get what we have here.
Daemons can be fought, they can be killed....they just...some are harder than others and some take damage from different things. All will take damage from light based things though, it's why I use Quicksilver here. One of the best guns for tracking moving targets and destroying limbs.
What I'm trying to say is that they are beatable....don't give up. If a scrawny kid like me could fight them for five years, a whole group of us can do it just fine.
Also...if you have any questions I might be able to help.
About the daemons....not much else though...sorry.

Names, nice. Implies they're observable. [ And, turns out they are, if he's right about these particles being seen scattering after a daemon -- a monster that used to be somebody until they got sick, was put down. ] What this oracle of yours had, what was it? Magic? Some kinda antibody?

This isn't his territory. ]
Oh yeah, we had people working on trying to study it, unfortunately most of that didn't start until it was a bunch of us huddling in well lit towns.
[ There's a pause before he continues on. ]
They were innate abilities...so yeah a special kind of magic.

[ He's feeling like hell warmed over -- and... like maybe he owes this guy an apology.
If he kicks the bucket, none of it will matter. ]
See ya.

[ Prompto really does feel bad. He should have come out with the info sooner. Maybe then they'd have more of a chance...somehow. ]
Just hang in there alright? I know this probably doesn't help at all, but this place could change it right?
From what I'm used to?
