2024.05.16 11:32 IXMCMXCII To those who have read the SPM for AR6, how much more drastic do you think AR7's SPM will be should nothing change?
It is unequivocal that human influence has warmed the atmosphere, ocean and land. Widespread and rapid changes in the atmosphere, ocean, cryosphere and biosphere have occurred.As if this wasn't enough of a stark warning in the opening, AR6 goes on to says that
Observed increases in well-mixed greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations since around 1750 are unequivocally caused by human activities. Since 2011 (measurements reported in AR5), concentrations have continued to increase in the atmosphere, reaching annual averages of 410 parts per million (ppm) for carbon dioxide (COâ), 1866 parts per billion (ppb) for methane (CHâ), and 332 ppb for nitrous oxide (NâO) in 2019.The science was settled for a very long time and I would have thought it would be widely accepted. Sadly this isn't the case. Having had my own family discuss the (non existent) (in my opinion)) issues they are having with analysis of climate change (is it man made or not, etc), many of them have accepted that indeed it is man made. And that we must look after the palnet for the betterment of the future. (Bolded text above was by me to highlight emphasis).
Land and ocean have taken up a near-constant proportion (globally about 56% per year) of COâ emissions from human activities over the past six decades, with regional differences (high confidence).
Panel (a) Changes in global surface temperature reconstructed from paleoclimate archives (solid grey line, years 1â2000) and from direct observations (solid black line, 1850â2020), both relative to 1850â1900 and decadally averaged. The vertical bar on the left shows the estimated temperature (very likely range) during the warmest multi-century period in at least the last 100,000 years, which occurred around 6500 years ago during the current interglacial period (Holocene). The Last Interglacial, around 125,000 years ago, is the next most recent candidate for a period of higher temperature. These past warm periods were caused by slow (multi-millennial) orbital variations. The grey shading with white diagonal lines shows the very likely ranges for the temperature reconstructions.I am hoping that the conlusions of AR7's SPM shows us the light at the end of the and how much we as a planet have improved. The science is settled; ignoring and arguing against it is to me, foolish.
Panel (b) Changes in global surface temperature over the past 170 years (black line) relative to 1850â1900 and annually averaged, compared to Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) climate model simulations (see Box SPM.1) of the temperature response to both human and natural drivers (brown) and to only natural drivers (solar and volcanic activity, green). Solid coloured lines show the multi-model average, and coloured shades show the very likely range of simulations.

2024.05.16 09:28 haygurlhay123 âThis Time, I Will Never Let You Goâ: Cloudâs Mission and the Hidden Purpose of the Remake Trilogy - Literary and Musical Analysis of FFVII - Part 3
âWe would love for you to play the [MFF x FFVII] collaboration event as you look forward to [Remakeâs] releaseâ (âCelebration of the Overseas Release of the Steam Version and FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE Collaboration Eventâ, Square Enix).He later hints at the collaborationâs storyline:
âThis collaboration is focused on Cloud, so the other characters will not make an appearance. Players will join Cloud, who has gone astray in Palamecia, on his adventures and see how the story unfolds based on his decisions. Content-wise, FINAL FANTASY VII fans will surely become fraught with emotion as events unfold in-game (laughs).âKitase concurs on the emotional aspect of the collaboration in the same interview:
âWhen it comes to the story, I seek two thingsâ âmysteryâ and â[âŚ] emotional impactâ.âClearly, fans of FFVII are supposed to react emotionally to the events of the collaboration. With these statements in mind to give us perspective, we can get into the plot points relevant to our analysis. MFF x FFVII Remake comes in two parts, the relevant plot points of which I will describe and analyze one at a time.
âEcho: How did you end up in Palamecia?This piece of dialogue reveals that Eclipse Contact Cloudâs memories end at the very moment when Avalanche arrives at reactor 1 in OG (disk 1, chapter 1): the very beginning of the game. Consequently, Cloud does not remember anything that happened from the beginning of the OG timeline onwards.
Cloud: I⌠That day... I remember now. A job. I had taken a job. I was hired muscle protecting clients. They wanted to stop the reactor... We used a train to get past security... Was it at night? Something happened... Next thing I knew, I was floating through darkness. Then [I woke up here]â.
âPerhaps he is not truly who he thinks he is.Just like he did in FFTâs Ivalice, Cloud feels the need to find the Promised Land in MFF x FFVII, despite the fact that he lacks memories of the OG timeline. Though Cloud doesnât remember anything beyond the train ride to reactor 1, he does remember the Promised Land (at least somewhat). This is odd, given that in OG, Cloud didnât learn about the Promised Land until several chapters into the game.
Perhaps everything is illusory, a dream.
Only one thing is certain, that he must press on, one step at a time, toward the light that shines from the promised land.â
âEcho: This is the light in your memories. The light of home.What follows is a moment I call the wishing scene (13:43-14:34). Cloud closes his eyes and wishes on the crystal. It flashes, and suddenly, rainbow-colored ripples of light appear around it. Aerithâs theme is replaced by a slightly modified version of âMidgar, City of Makoâ, the track that plays during the opening cutscene of Remake. You can recreate the modification by listening to âMidgar, City of Makoâ from 2:00 to 2:23, then skipping to 3:00 and listening until 3:18. You may recognize the musical motif that kicks off the wishing scene as the Lifestream motif, which has become symbolic of the mysteries of the Remake trilogy, as it often plays during scenes where unexplainable plot deviations from OG occurâ more specifically, deviations involving multiverse shenanigans. For instance, it plays during MOTF 4. It also plays in Rebirth after Cloud blocks masamune as Aerith is shown dying anyway.
Cloud: Home? But I donâtâ
Echo: If you don't remember⌠then your home is lost to you.
Cloud: Then my memories are gone.
Wol: Do you want to reclaim your past?
Cloud: Not interested... I am what I am now. Not what I was.
Wol: Then tell me⌠This light. If you canât remember it, what does it mean to you?
Cloud: It's a warm light... I feel at peace. If this place âhomeâ is as warm and peaceful as this light, then I want to go there.
Echo: You can't go there... Not back to the past.
Cloud: I see.
Echo: But even if you can't go back to the past, you can go forward. If you wish for it strongly enough, the crystal will show you the way. The way to a new world. The way to your Promised Land. [âŚ]
Cloud: So... Should [I] take [my] chances and make a wish to this crystal?
Wol: Go ahead. Itâs your crystal.
Echo: I should warn you that once you start on this journey, there's no coming back.
Cloud: The past is the past. I want to go to a place where everything is new. Iâm ready.â
âEcho: Each person gets the Promised Land they justly deserve, not the one they really need. If youâre a bad person, you go to a bad place. If you expect nothing, you get nothing. Even the journey there makes you look deep within yourself to find out who you really are. Cloud should be facing his own past as we speak. Itâs cruel, but necessary. That battle was a long time comingâ.Apparently, at least in the context of this collaboration event, the Promised Land can be a reward or a punishment, depending on which you deserve. Echo explains that Cloud will have to face himself and his past on his way to his Promised Land. This means that the Cloud that appears in Eclipse Contact must next embark on a journey that will confront him with his past, test his mettle, and ultimately lead him to the Promised Land he justly deserves.
âSeven seconds till the end. Time enough for you. Perhaps. But what will you do with it? Let's see.âThe question âWhat will you do with it?â implies that the answer is unknown, meaning Cloud is no longer bound to the OG timeline by fate: many alternate futures lay ahead. Sephiroth is telling Cloud and the audience that now, the mystery of the Remake trilogy has become âWhich future will Cloud bring into existence? Which among the infinite possible timelines will his choices result in?â After pondering this aloud, Sephiroth leaves Cloud alone to consider the rainbow effects in the sky (1:19:23-1:19:36). Because they generally represent alternate or changing timelines, itâs safe to assume that the rainbow ripples here represent the myriad of possible worlds that Cloudâs actions in those seven seconds could generate. After all, Sephiroth was just talking about them, and chapter 18âs description in Remake reads as follows:
âIn a world beyond, Sephiroth shows Cloud a vision of the planet seven seconds before its demise. Having strayed from the course destiny set for them, they strike out on a path towards an unknown future."This explains why the player is shown Cloud staring at those colors in the apocalyptic sky at worldâs end, directly after hearing Sephirothâs cryptic words: those are all the alternate âunknown futureâ timelines ahead of him, now unravelled from fate. Amongst those rainbow ripples lies the answer to the question âWhat will you do with [the seven seconds]?â
âSephiroth: Itâs time. You may turn your back on the past, lock your memories away. Hide reality beneath a layer of illusion. But destiny will not die so easily. Yes. At memoryâs end you may plead for it all to go away. But the past is a curse, binding your soul. Itâs time. Wake to your fate. Rise to your destiny.Sephirothâs mentions of Cloud hiding under an illusion and repressing his memories are no doubt allusions to Cloudâs past, which was complicated and darkened by Hojoâs experiments. It makes sense, then, that Cloud responds with âReunionâ. Fatal Calling indeed focuses on Cloudâs relationship to his past, his identity and Sephiroth. Everything involving Nibelheim âwhere everything startedâ, Sephirothâs manipulation, and Hojoâs experiments are on the table. Also noteworthy if not out of place is Sephirothâs evocation of fate.
Cloud: (In a half-conscious grunt) ReunionâŚ
Sephiroth: The light will lead you. Wake to your fate. Rise!â
âIt's still not enough. This... this is but a pale imitation of the power I desire.âOnce Sephiroth has disappeared, Cloud explains what he remembers: Sephiroth was the greatest SOLDIER of all and a hero to Cloud, though Cloud canât remember what exactly ended this admiration. As players of FFVII OG, we know the event in question is the Nibelheim incident, wherein Sephiroth slaughtered the townâs residents, including Cloudâs mother, after learning of his past. The former war hero also severely injured Tifa, whom Cloud presumed dead when he found her in the old mako reactor with a vicious slash on her chest. Cloud is agitated by the gaps in his memory, so the group resolves to follow Sephiroth for answers. When they find him again, Sephiroth causes Cloud to experience a piercing headache with the mere mention of the Reunion. They fight, but Sephiroth is too powerfulâ he skewers Cloud with the masamune and taunts his unconscious body:
âSephiroth: A puppet. I wonât kill you. Not yet. Not until you know true despair.Sephiroth darkens Cloudâs materia, turning it black. Later, Wol explains to Cloud that Sephiroth stole the light from his materia, taking Cloudâs strength along with it.
Wol: If you want despair, we got plenty to go around. Palameciaâs full of it.
Sephiroth: Yes, this planet knows suffering. But it is not the world that was promised to me. I must go home. Tell Cloud, if he wants to see me again, he should face his memories. I will await him there, in the land of memory, where it all began. In Nibelheim.â
âA Warriorâs Tale: There's a girl in Nibelheim I think about. Warm. Cheerful. More grown-up than a child. Haven't talked to her much, but she seems nice. She's going to be leading the SOLDIERs to the mountain reactor. Maybe if I get into the survey team I'll get a chance to talk to her? Nah. She's out of my league.âYoung Cloudâs crush on Tifa is on full display! This must be a memory from his time as an infantryman accompanying Zack and Sephiroth to Nibelheim.
âTale of the Nameless: I drift along in the mako, asleep. Who am I? Who am I? Who am I? Who am I? Give me a number. I⌠I⌠I am⌠The Reunion. The Reunion must happen.âThis entry could be taken from any one of the Nibelheim survivorsâ perspectives, as they were all bathed in mako and turned into Sephiroth clones. I would venture to say this is Cloudâs perspective though, given the reference to this iconic line from OG:
âCloud: Professor... please give me a number. Please, Professor...The trio encounters Sephiroth near the old Mt. Nibel mako reactor. Because Sephiroth stole the light from his materia earlier, Cloud goes into the confrontation already drained of his strength. However, when Cloud lifts the materia in his hand, it lights up and creates rainbow ripples in the air around him, similar to those seen in Eclipse Contact and Rebirth. Cloud is healed of his injuries: he closes his eyes for a moment, wearing a peaceful expression. Sephiroth is displeased, but recovers quickly:
Hojo: Shut up, miserable failure.â (disk 2, chapter 2).
âSephiroth: The guiding light⌠it healed you.With this second evocation of fate, Sephiroth disappears.
Wol: [âŚ] here, near the mako reactor, the materia regained its light. And your strength returned [âŚ]. [Sephiroth]âs here so he can steal the power you've stored inside that materia.
Sephiroth, with a short laugh: I have all the power I need. Cloud. What strength youâve regained is yours. Use it to fight me. Itâs time. Letâs decide this, in this land lost to despair. The prize is home. The Promised Land. There to answer the call of destiny.â
âNow, let us return. Back to the Promised Land. The time of the Reunion has come.âAfter Cloud finally breaks free and defeats Sephiroth with the help of Wol and Echo, the villain makes a final threat:
âVery good, Cloud. Youâve destroyed an illusion. But the time will come to abandon your illusions and face reality. Then, you will know true pain.âSephiroth disappears for the last time, his body surrounded by his signature dark fog and the rainbow ripples. A piano rendition of Tifaâs theme begins. Cloudâs orb rises into the air and becomes a crystal, with the same shape and glow as the one we see in Eclipse Contact. The following dialogue is illuminating:
âCloud: I will fight. The light will lead me where I need to go.Tifaâs theme ends. Cloud approaches the crystal, and disappears in a beam of blinding light. Once Cloud has vanished with the crystal, Aerithâs theme begins playing. A few pale feathers with a slight orange tint (the color of MFF) float down onto the floor where he stood seconds before. The image fades to black. The credits roll, and Aerithâs theme continues all the way through.
Wol: You sure? Wasnât that [crystal] Sephirothâs?
Cloud: I heard Sephiroth's voice, at the end. Inside me. Whatever he put in me, itâs still in there. Someday Iâll settle that score. If I can't avoid destiny, I might as well face it head-on.
Wol: Yeah. That was quite a speech, Cloud. Surprised you made it through without laughing.
Cloud: Yeah, forget I said it. I will too.
Echo: Forgetting wonât make it go away. Even if the words fade from memory, your dream will never disappear. Not until it becomes real.â
The crystal shines as though in response.
âEcho: See? See, that's how the light of hope works. Hope can turn your dreams into reality.
Cloud: Yeah. I guess so. I might forget this world, but I wonât forget hope. And my reality, thatâs for me to live.â
âWhy do we cling together?The song appears to be a regretful lament of human behavior, expressed by the repetition of âWhy do we [âŚ]?â questions. The behaviors listed are all typically human ones: the terms â[clinging] togetherâ and â[giving] punishment to [the] lesserâ express the uniquely human nature of tribalism and the consequences of the fear and hatred it can generate, and â[begging] for forgiveness in the Promised Landâ is likely a reference to the human hypocrisy of only feeling sorry for oneâs crimes when judgement day arrives. This last line describes a scenario where someone remains passive or ignorant in the face of something important, only to realize its essentiality once itâs too late. The repeatedâThe planet did not forgive usâ lines reflect the fear of being condemned forever because of oneâs mistakes, as though the planet is a deity one has sinned against. The lyric describing a pulse in the earth is obviously about the planet being aliveâ a reference to the Lifestream. But the pulse is faint and weak and the planet is dying, perishing because of mankindâs greed. This is an indictment of mako energy. The line âA gentle life returns to the planetâ refers to an innocentâs soul returning to the Lifestream after death, while the next lyric âIs it necessary to sacrifice souls?â protests the âsacrificeâ of the planetâs soul energy for mako production. In all this darkness, this songâs mention of âforgiveness in the Promised Landâ leaves a modicum of hope for a better place, however meek, even though mankind might not deserve it. The song âThe Promised Landâ is both a lament of mankindâs ways and a plea for mercy, with religious and/or spiritual undertones. The songâs themes seem to be: the Promised Land itself, regret and shame, the sins and foolishness of mankind, the death of innocents, grief, Cetra spirituality, and a meek, quiet hope despite it all. The most interesting aspect of the song is its antithetical portrayal of death as a thing of both despair and hope, condemnation and salvation, cruelty and mercy, suffering and relief. Maybe we can glean more information about this themeâs significance in the world of FFVII if we examine the contexts in which it appears.
Why do we give punishment to lesser hearts?
The planet did not forgive us
Did not forgive us
The planet did not forgive us
Did not forgive us
The pulse of veins flows through the earth
A faint, faint pulse
Of a heart drawn to death
A gentle life returns to the planet
Is it necessary to sacrifice souls?
Why do we cling together?
Why do we beg for forgiveness
In the Promised Land?â (ââThe Promised Landâ (theme)â by Final Fantasy Wiki).
âAerithâs voice: Kadaj?Kadaj is brought into the Lifestream by Aerith as she provides rain from the Lifestream. All those with geostigma are healed by the rain, and Tifa feels Aerithâs presence as the party celebrates:
Kadaj: Huh?
The dark sky has gone with Sephiroth. Healing rain starts falling from bright clouds. The rain no longer hurts Kadaj.
Aerithâs voice: You donât have to hang on any longer.
Kadaj: Mother! Is that�
Aerithâs voice: Everyoneâs waiting, if youâre ready.
Kadaj nods his head slightly in acceptance. He holds out his hand, and slowly evaporates into the Lifestream. Cloud watches [âŚ]â (Advent Children).
âTifa, looking out at the falling rain [âŚ]: Somehow, I knew you were there. Thank youâ (Advent Children).Cloud stands in the rain with a smile âhis first in the whole filmâ, closes his eyes and basks in Aerithâs healing with his face upturned. He is finally at peace:
âCloudâs expression is one of peace as the [Lifestream] rain patters against himâ (Final Fantasy VII Advent Children English script, â[83] Atop the Shinra Buildingâ).One thing is clear: the track âThe Promised Landâ accompanies Aerith. It only makes sense, since weâve seen overwhelming evidence that she is Cloudâs Promised Land, and since she occupies the Lifestream âwhich some consider the Promised Land as it is where souls go after deathâ during the events of Advent Children. Note that when the piece plays, Cloud is shown either mourning Aerith and releasing her into the river at the Cetra capital, or basking in her presence, smiling with relief at the peaceful feeling that sheâs somewhere near: these two opposing scenes reflect the songâs antithetical portrayal of death.
ââCan sins ever be forgiven?â â Cloud asks this to Vincent, who mutters a brief answer. For both of them, âI couldn't protect my loved oneâ is the sense of guilt that they carry, so their words resonate with weightâ (FFVII 10th Anniversary Ultimania Revised Edition, âChapter 2: Character in FFVIIWorldâ, âVincent Valentineâ, âIn Advent Childrenâ, page 72).&
"âIt is my sin that I couldn't protect my loved oneâ â under this assumption, Cloud closes off his heart. What will the reunion with Aerith bring him? âI... think I want to be forgiven. Yeah, I just want to be forgivenââ (FFVII 10th Anniversary Ultimania Revised Edition, âChapter 2: Character in FFVIIWorldâ, âCloud Strifeâ, âIn Advent Childrenâ, page 40).&
âCloud, after seeing Aerithâs hand reach for him through the Lifestream: ⌠I think I'm beginning to understand.Just as the song and Marlene express in the introduction of the film, Aerith was innocent, and her sacrifice generated great grief. Cloud finally experiences peace when he feels her presence in the healing rain, and he smiles: heâs glad to be with her again, even if itâs only for a brief moment of tangential respite.
Tifa: What?
Cloud: An answer from the Planet⌠the Promised Land... I think I can meet her... thereâ (disk 3, chapter 3).
âCloud: That was the first time I heard about Sephiroth. If I got strong like Sephiroth, then everyone might... If I could just get stronger... Then even Tifa would have to notice meâ (FFVII OG, disk 2, chapter 8).Additionally, itâs fitting that her theme should begin right after Sephiroth speaks of â[abandoning] your illusions and [facing] realityâ, considering that Cloudâs false persona was concocted by Jenova using Tifaâs mistaken impressions of Cloud:
âWhile being tended to by a station worker in the Sector 7 Slum train station, [Cloud] was reunited with Tifa, and using the abilities of Jenovaâs cells, formed a new personalityâ (FFVII 10th Anniversary Ultimania Revised Edition, âChapter 2: Character in FFVII World, âCloud Strifeâ, âCloud Behavior Record, Compilation of FFVIIâ, page 40).&
â(Image caption:) A new personality takes shape the moment he sees Tifaâ (FFVII Story Playback, âStory Check: Tifaâs Flashbackâ).&
âTifa (to Cloud): Deep down, you're a pretty nice guy. Didn't see it when we were kids, but...â (Remake, chapter 14).

Hi! Can someone help me with $13 to buy dish soap, hygiene products, cat pate & grass, and the rest for food? submitted by EstablishmentAble343 to beg2 [link] [comments] I'm a student, and I work as an English tutor. I just got my paycheck on May 10th but I used almost all for bills, debt, overdue rent, and May's rent, and I saved the amount I will pay for the internet bill next month because it comes earlier than my paycheck. I usually expect some money this week from teaching a private student but I forgot that it's summer break now, so she probably won't study with me this month. I've been tutoring her for 3 years but I'm not sure she'll come back in July for a summer course. My cat is on his last pate can, and he vomited a little last week. He also breathes a little too fast. I'm not sure if he has feline asthma or if it's the heatwave. I'm trying my best to brush dust off his fur after he plays in the hallway, I wet his belly to help him cool down, and mop my apartment every other day, and I clean the hallway too. I live in Vietnam, and I made a list of the things I need and their prices in VND and USD. (I met so many American people and a few British people online, so I just assumed the currency) I'll buy cat supplies on Shopee and other stuff at a local store. They cost around $6 and I will use the rest for food. I appreciate any help! Thank you for reading <3 Links to cat pate and cat grass https://preview.redd.it/ij6pcvz1pq0d1.png?width=1416&format=png&auto=webp&s=85095bae7611efa20e21ad7a26611607e3e4b2ba |

2024.05.16 08:18 haygurlhay123 âThis Time, I Will Never Let You Goâ: Cloudâs Mission and the Hidden Purpose of the Remake Trilogy - Literary and Musical Analysis of FFVII - Part 2
âWhen is my knight in shining armor going to take me away from here...?âLater, Ramza and his companions encounter a mysterious machine that can summon people from across universes. The machine is activated, and a rather rude young man with spiky blonde hair appears. Cloud claims he used to be in SOLDIER, and says the last thing he remembers is âgetting stuck in the currentâ. He looks to be disoriented and lost, and suffers from piercing headaches. Mere moments after being summoned to Ivalice, Cloud rambles:
âWhatâs this? My fingers are tingling⌠My eyes⌠theyâre burning⌠Stop⌠stop it [Se]phirothâŚâHe dashes out of the room, but not without announcing:
âI must go⌠must go to that placeâŚâOutside, Cloud encounters the brunette flower girl Ramza met earlier. She offers Cloud a flower, but he only stares at her wordlessly:
âFlower girl: Buy a flower? Only 1 gil.As soon as Cloud leaves, a gang of ruffians surround the flower girl and start harassing her, demanding payment thatâs apparently overdue. One of them finally calls her by her name: âAerisâ. He grabs her, insinuating that he might sexually assault her in lieu of payment. Aeris is not strong enough to push him away. Thatâs when Cloud returns:
Cloud: âŚ
Flower girl: Something wrong? Do I resemble someone?â
Cloud: No⌠itâs nothing.â
âCloud: Get your hand off her!Aeris heeds Cloudâs advice, fleeing the scene before a fight between Cloud and the thug can break out. After Cloud scares the ruffians off with the help of Ramza and his companions, he speaks once more:
Thug: What did you say!?
Cloud: Didn't you hear me? Get your dirty hand off her!
[âŚ]
Cloud, to Aeris: Go⌠now.â
âI lost⌠something very important⌠Ever since, Iâve been lost [âŚ]. What should I do? What about this pain [?] Must go⌠to the Promised Land.âIII. b) ii. Fact Analysis
â[The flower sellerâs] name is Aeris, and she has the same appearance and tone of voice as the Aeris of FFVII. However, when she comes across Cloud, she does not recognize him. Could she really be the same Aerith who appears in FFVII but with memory loss, or is she a completely different character?â (â#4 Proof of Omegaâ, âFFVII in Other Gamesâ, âFinal Fantasy Tacticsâ, page 560).Regardless of her unknown identity and inability to recognize Cloud, FFT Aerisâ fantasy of a âknight in shining armorâ is quite reminiscent of the flower girl/bodyguard dynamic weâve come to know and love. Cloudâs armor doesnât shine, but in my opinion, if youâre looking for the dystopian, corporatocratic equivalent of a knight, you canât get much closer than a supposed-former-SOLDIER-turned-bodyguard. Additionally, despite his rude and cold attitude toward Ramzaâs gang, the urgency with which Cloud swoops in to save the flower girl from the ruffians betrays a softer, warmer side to him: the flower girl/bodyguard dynamic strikes again!
âCait Sith, reading Cloudâs fortune: You will find [what] you pursue. However, you will lose the most precious thingâ (disk 1, chapter 16, English translation by Kotakuâs âLetâs Mosey: A Slow Translation of Final Fantasy Seven: Part Eightâ by Tim Rogers, 9:42-9:52).&
âCloud, after seeing Aerithâs hand reach for him through the Lifestream: ⌠I think I'm beginning to understand.Finally, letâs try to understand where on the OG timeline Cloud was summoned to this suspension world from and what he remembers. His comment about getting stuck in a current has to be about the Lifestream; apparently, on top of its atemporal nature, it can act as a conduit to other worlds. One only enters the Lifestream if theyâve somehow fallen into the core of the planet or once theyâve passed away and returned to the planet. Both scenarios merit consideration.
Tifa: What?
Cloud: An answer from the Planet⌠the Promised Land... I think I can meet her... thereâ (disk 3, chapter 3).
âTifa: The way you showed up and fought that guy off. It was a pretty cool thing to watch. You were like a hero, charging in to save the girl.On another note, Cloud knows he will have to fight Tifa once the Cosmos-Chaos conflict comes to a head, as they are on opposing teams. He thinks to himself:
Cloud gasps at her words. She doesnât noticeâ (Dissidia 012: Treachery of the Gods, report 5: âUnexpected Fulfillment 2â).
âOnce [her] memories return, [she]âll lose the will to fight just like I have. So... Before that can happen, I have to act...â (Dissidia 012: Treachery of the Gods, report 5: âUnexpected Fulfillment 2â).In order to end the cycle of the conflict and to avoid fighting Tifa, Cloud decides to try and defeat Chaos himself. Predictably, Cloud is no match for the deity. As he dies, Cloud pleads the following to the goddess Cosmos:
âCosmos, goddess of harmony. If you can hear me, listen to my plea. I beg you. Save her. Save my friend⌠Tifa.âCosmos hears him and responds immediately:
âCosmos: An end to this conflict, and a life spared? This is your heart's desire? If your will remains unchanged, I shall bring you here when the battle draws to a close. Cloud. My chosen" (Dissidia 0.13: Treachery of the Gods, report 7: âUnexpected Fulfillment 3â).Cloudâs wish is granted by Cosmos: the first phase of the conflict ends without Tifa getting hurt, and she is sent away from the suspension world of DFF before the second phase begins. Cloud is saved from death, and Cosmos enlists him into her team of warriors for phase two: this time, Cloud is fighting on the good side.
âCosmos: The crystals embody the strength to face despair. With ten gathered, there is hope yet to save the world. The path to your crystal will be perilous... and different for each and every one of you. But you must believe in and follow your own path. Even if you know not where that path leads" (Dissidia 013: Light to All, prologue: âA Final Hopeâ).From this exposition, simply keep in mind that: Cloud must find his crystal by overcoming a personal trial, and his crystal may have the appearance of an object in OG thatâs important to him.
âCloud: I've looked, but I'm still empty-handed. And without a dream, what do you suppose I should do? [âŚ] Maybe what I'm looking for... isn't hereâ (Dissidia 0.13: Light to All, chapter 1: âBeyond Doubtâ, âGateway of Good and Evilâ).Another fellow warrior, Cecil, expresses worry for Cloud, whose response evokes the main theme of FFVII OG:
âCecil: Everyone's worried, Cloud. But... Do you shoulder a larger concern?Whatever Cloud is looking for âisnât [there]â, and he feels âa sense of lossâ: Cloudâs motivating dream has been lost to him. This is later reasserted in a conversation with Terra, another warrior of Cosmos:
Cloud: Concern... Maybe a sense of loss" (Dissidia 0.13: Light to All, chapter 1: âBeyond Doubtâ, âBeyond the Continentâ).
âTerra: And you, Cloud... What's your dream?Later, Cloud encounters and fights Sephiroth, who is still a part of Chaosâ team. Sephiroth is defeated, but not before heâs taunted Cloud with his habitual puppet talk. However, Cloud remains strong and refutes Sephirothâs manipulation, asserting that only he can determine his own path. This mustâve been Cloudâs personal trial, because his crystal appears at that very moment: it is a small, light green orb that looks like materia from his core world. Having pocketed his crystal, Cloud decides he must find his own reason to fight. Interestingly, his search is depicted as intertwined with Fate:
Cloud: I've lost mine" (Dissidia 0.13: Light to All, chapter 3: âThe Chosen Battleâ, âGateway of True Intentâ).
âCloud: Even if I have my doubts... I have to find my own answer [âŚ] Until then, I'll keep fighting.Later, the nemeses meet again in a segment called âRecurring Tragedyâ. Their interactions here are particularly interesting. Sephiroth speaks of making Cloud suffer through despair and pain as though referencing their history together:
Narration: The warrior has vowed to keep fightingâ and keep fighting he will [âŚ]. Etched in destiny, his quest for answers continues onâ (Dissidia 0.13: Light to All, chapter 1: âBeyond Doubtâ, âGulg Gatewayâ).
"Sephiroth: This disease called hope is eating you alive. The world of suffering was born out of such half-baked ideals.This final line suggests Cloud has finally found a reason to fight: he wants to meet someone unspecified.
Cloud: If that's the case, I have to endure the suffering. There's no moving on if I run from it.
Sephiroth: If that is what you wish for, you shall drown in the pain. I'll lead you to true despair. [My] shadow is burned into your heart. We'll meet again, Cloud. I'll keep coming backâ as long as you are who you are."
Sephiroth disappears. Cloud looks out into the distance before the scene ends.
âCloud: No thanks. The one I really want to meet isâŚâ (Dissidia 013: Light to All, epilogue: âConclusion of a Cycleâ, âRecurring Tragedyâ).
â[The] heroes are all standing together in a grassy field with a forest behind them. Birds are chirping, the sun is shining brightly, and the wind is blowing gently. The heroes look around them in awe. They're all holding their crystals.As you can see, everyoneâs crystal is very important to the story of their core world, and in the cases of at least Tidus, Squall, Terra and Cecil, the crystals represent something very personal. What about Cloud and his crystal, then? What about the dream he lost and the person he wants to meet? Letâs begin analyzing to answer these questions.
WoL: The battle has come to an end...
Tidus notices that his crystal has begun to emanate a blue glow.>! His crystal is a movie sphere from his core world of FFX: a capsule containing sounds and images that people record for later viewing. Tidusâ crystal likely represents the specific movie sphere recorded by his love interest Yuna, which revealed that sheâd loved him from the beginning.!<
Tidus: Gotta go, huh...
The blue glow transfers to him as well. He turns to look at the others
[âŚ] Tidus grins at the others, then turns and runs toward a nearby lake. He leaps into it in a manner reminiscent of [the events] of FFX. He vanishes as he descends toward the lake.
Zidane: We're not vanishing. We're returningâ
Zidane is sitting on a tree limb as he says this. His crystal begins to glow gold, as does he. His crystal is shaped like a highly important âprogenitor of all lifeâ crystal from his core world of FFIX.
Zidane: â to where we're supposed to be.
Zidane spins around the tree limb with the use of his tail and launches toward the sun. He's lost to view.
A white feather then drifts down from that direction and Squall catches it. The feather is reminiscent of his love Rinoa Heartilly, whose character symbol is a white feather. In fact, Squallâs crystal looks like a mix of his revolver gunblade from FFVIII and Rinoaâs feather motif. [Squall glows blue.]
Squall: Perhaps we can go on a mission together again.
Squall vanishes.
Cloud is then visible, standing in [a] flower field. The flowers are white and yellow. Cloud has his crystal, a light green materia from his core world of FFVII, in hand.
Cloud: [(Chuckles shortly, like a scoff)] Not interested.
Cloud walks off into the flower field, gaining a green glow. He vanishes.
A snowflake then falls into Terra's right hand as her crystal begins to glow pink. The flames drawn on her crystal represent her power, which is connected to the element of fire: her character arc in FFVI.
Terra: I think I've learned how to keep going. Thank youâ and take care.
Terra glows pink and then vanishes. Bartz throws a stick. He's glowing pink as well.
Bartz: When you're having the most fun, that's when time always flies. His crystal is the Adamantite from his core world of FFV.
Bartz vanishes.
Cecil: It's mine to pass onâ
A moon appears behind Cecil and goes through its phases as he begins to glow blue. His crystal has shadowed and illuminated parts, representing the duality of his character, which is central to his personal arc in his core world of FFIV. It also represents his brother Golbez, who has chosen the darkness. Cecil considers his familial bond with Golbez his guiding light and hopes to be with him someday.
Cecil: â this strength I've gained from everyone.
Cecil vanishes.
Onion Knight hugs his crystal and looks up toward the sky. His crystal is shaped like those found in his core world of FFIII**.**
Onion Knight: Everyone... thank you!
OK briefly glows blue and then vanishes.
There are wild roses at Firion's feet. He and WoL are looking toward the sky. WoL suddenly begins walking away while Firion looks down and sees the roses.
Firion: This isn't the end. Another dream is waiting to begin.
His crystal is the color of the wild roses that were at the center of his dream and of his motivation to fight Chaos. The roses are also the emblem of the Rebel Army he was a part of in his core world of FFII. His crystal is shaped like Pandaemonium, the final dungeon of his core world story. Firion gains a violet glow and then vanishes.
WoL is walking through the field and then comes to a stop. He's looking at something.
WoL: May the light forever shine upon us.â
"[...] we filmed the video for the ending credits in Hawaii. There are fields of flowers on both sides of the road, and the colors âyellow and whiteâ are the same as the flowers in Aerith's church [âŚ]. With Aerith, 'flowers' have been her image throughout the seriesâ (FFVII Reunion Files, âCountdown to Reunionâ, âStories from CG Productionâ, page 87).Even in the Advent Children Complete cut of the film, where Aerith is not shown standing in the field, the flowers and their symbolism of Aerith remain. That being so, itâs more than fair to say that the white and yellow flowers in DFFâs ending cutscene serve as yet another confirmation that Cloudâs dream is to be with Aerith.
âBugenhagen: If [the prayer] reaches the planet, the White Materia will begin to glow a pale greenâ (FFVII OG, disk 2, chapter 15).Here are pictures of the White Materia in OG and Advent Children, and two pictures of Cloud's DFF crystal (in order) so you can compare for yourself:
âShe was gone in the blink of an eye. But the pain never went away.Conveniently enough for us, the expoâs tagline is âWho is the person you want to meet again?â Given that Aerith holds the spotlight in the FFVII section of the expo, itâs clear who SE is telling us Cloud wants to reunite with. Recall Cloudâs unfinished line in DFF: âThe one I really want to meet is..." (Dissidia 013: Light to All, epilogue: âConclusion of a Cycleâ, âRecurring Tragedyâ). We theorized that he must be referring to Aerith, and now, we are certain.
Aerith awoke the ultimate magic to protect the planet and the people she loved. Yet her life came to a sudden end at the hands of Sephiroth, a man bent on seeing the world destroyed. Even the usually stoic Cloud couldnât hide his grief at the unexpected death of an irreplaceable companion. âMy fingers are tingling. My mouth is dry. My eyes are burning.â True words, revealing Cloudâs deep sorrowâ (Final Fantasy 30th Anniversary Exposition).
âThe story follows the lead character Cloud, but it is the heroine, Aerith, who opens Cloudâs eyes and helps bring him closer to understanding the mystery that is his past. Through her, we draw closer to the truth of the story.Itâs interesting that SE would mention the rumors of Aerithâs revival circulated by players back in 1997, especially as fans were awaiting Remakeâs releaseâŚ
This scene, in which the heroine Aerith is lost, is easily the most shocking and tragic in the story. No one expected to say goodbye to such a major character in the middle of the story. Rumors of a secret way to revive Aerith spread, and it was clear players were having a hard time saying goodbye to her too. Even now, twenty years later, it still feels like a shocking turn of eventsâ (Final Fantasy 30th Anniversary Exposition Pamphlet, page 36).
