Summary: In a world at war, two faces from the past arrive as Jenova mounts a new offensive.
Comments: One of those fics that I saw recced several times before I actually started reading. The beginning is kind of slow and could use a bit of tightening up, but I was genuinely startled at how quickly I read it. It’s…long and epic and just really well-done. I like the contrast the author draws between Zack, Sephiroth, and Cloud from pre-Nibelheim to them after the game plus several years of war. I also really, really like the way she writes Aeris, and the Aeris/Zack scenes are just adorable. …We all have our biases.
Multi-chapter, incomplete.
