Topic	Do you think Sephiroth... FF7 SPOILERS
hollow_shrine 06/26/19 12:27:46 PM #14:	Veggeta X posted... hollow_shrine posted... His mother, Jenova, was never a member of the Cetra. She's a shapeshifting alien, like Lavos (from Chrono Trigger) or the monster from the John Carpenter's The Thing. (supposedly one of the inspirations for her character, including her boss sprite). This is where he misunderstood his true origins giving himself a fake agenda. Was it himself? That's a nice theory, though. I'm more inclined to believe he has free will. Well the last living Ancient who knew all of this was Ifalna, Aeris's mother. She dies and most of the knowledge goes with her (though Ancients can apparently pass memories to each other beyond the grave). In her (and Professor Gast's) home, you can watch tapes she made with Gast explaining what Jenova is and why it wasn't an ancient but an invading threat. It's unclear how much of this Sephiroth knows. In the basement of Shinra mansion it's reasonable to believe some of Gast's notes would be there for Sephiroth's reading, since he was second only to Hojo in researching all this and they were lab mates. But we don't know. Still Sephiroth referring to Jenova as 'mother,' and disclosing that she's apparently talking to him is a huge red flag. After the events at the Northern Crater we figure out that the 'mother' in Sephiroth's mind has apparently been talking to Cloud too, and occasionally possessing him. --- Ignorance is a choice https://imgtc.com/i/7UnK3hx.jpg <cite>hollow_shrine posted [p:923872273] in Do you thi...
