Ffvii Ever Crisis - Tumblr Posts

I started sketching this illustration after watching the first Ever Crisis trailer, as this dress is one of my all-time favorite outfits from Aerith! 👗✨

"The Promised Land… I think I can meet her… there" is a Cloud line from OG FF7's ending, which I thought was a good way of conveying that Aerith was waiting for him in the Promised Land while wearing this dress. 💖

I just realized that two of the most impactful people that Sephiroth has ever killed both have bows in the back of their hair.

Gi Lore Analysis Rewrite

(I deleted my previous theory post on the matter. I loved writing it but I want false information lingering on my page, especially after the ultimania proved it wrong.)

Words:

Subsume – include or absorb (something) in something else.

Wane – decrease in vigor, power, or extent; become weaker.

Correction on Pervious Theory:

So I was wrong about the GI being the original inhabitance of Gaia. At the time I read “…until at last it was subsumed by your own” , alongside the description of the calamitous event being an indication of The Omega weapon arriving. Thanks to Dirge of Cerberus and information regarding the Chronicles of Yore, that the Omega weapon will collect the Lifestream one day leave Gaia. To sail through the cosmos for another planet to inhabit (It’s also the plan that Sephiroth wanted to enact in Advent Children).

However, as I was going over my analysis to see how I went wrong, after learning through the new ultimania for rebirth said that GI did in fact come from another world.

So with that being said I would like to update my analysis. So we now know GI home world did in fact merge with Gaia, after the gi’s home world began to reach the end of its life. I don’t know how the merging happened but from the lines “the earth shook, sea’s boiled, sky shattered, and time stopped”, and “Few of my people survived the chaos and calamity. Those who did began a new life here”. It wasn’t someone the Gi planned for but tried to make the most of it. Only to be rejected by the planet and later on the Cetra. I still believe that Lifestream during the merging of these two worlds that gaia had override the system in whichh the GI has been a part of. Due to their system being compromised and the Lifestream was just stronger in comparison.

This still leads to the GI suffering and the creation of the Black Materia (or corruption of a white materia) and the events of the game so far.

New Theory:

I now believe that the reason why the Black Materia summons Meteor is because that is how the merging of the Gi’s home world happened. Ff7 has this theme of returning from where you came from, whether it be through the Lifestream, facing your past, or rediscovering who you are. So why wouldn’t this apply to the GI.

Their want for freedom from existence is manifest through the black materia. And since materia is created through memories, the meteor might represent the memory on how they arrived. So in a way their salvation/destruction comes form the memory of their former home.
