  • Artist Info: The man who 2 years ago defeated Sephiroth, and held back the threat of Meteor. In the end he became a hero who saved the life of the planet, but what he lost during that battle took a heavy toll, and Cloud’s heart continued to be tormented by a deep sense of regret and blame towards himself. It was during this that he met Denzel, a boy inflicted by “Geostigma,” a mysterious illness believed to be caused by Meteor. And so Cloud leaves and struggles to find a cure for this illness. However, he finds himself infected by Geostigma, and as if fleeing he removes himself from the presence of his friends. Cloud suffers at the thought of being unable to save anybody. His heart remains trapped as it was 2 years ago…<br />
    <br />
    Not letting him escape, ghosts from the past silently creep up on him. The battle with Kadaj’s gang who have suddenly appeared. And glimpses of the shadow of Sephiroth behind them. Cloud is once again consumed by a fate he cannot free himself from. However, seeing the children– pained by Geostigma but still trying to survive– stirs Cloud into action. And those who once fought by his side, and those who once stood opposed to them… with the aid of many, Cloud gradually regains his will to fight.<br />

    Compilation of FFVII for Cloud<br />
    <br />
    Before Crisis -FFVII-<br />
    “BC”, starting 6 years before FFVII and showing the story from the Turks’ point of view, features Cloud as a regular grunt in Shinra’s army. At this time he’s 15 years old and still retains some innocence, and one of those who idolized the hero Sephiroth. While there is a childish quality to his words and actions, there would seem to be no doubt about his skill. As you advance through the missions the incident in Nibelheim are also shown, and the fateful events between Sephiroth are also portrayed.<br />
    <br />
    Crisis Core -FFVII-<br />
    “CC” tells the story of Zack, the SOLDIER who would later have a great influence on Cloud. Yet again Cloud appears as a grunt in Shinra’s army. Its time line overlaps with BC, but the painful, tragic fate between Zack and Cloud is shown.<br />
    <br />
    Final Fantasy VII<br />
    During the Nibelheim incident, Cloud contracted severe mako poisoning and convinced himself that Zack’s history was his own, and in this state goes on a journey in pursuit of Sephiroth. At last he regains his true self, and confronts Sephiroth. He saves the world from the threat of Meteor. This should have been the end of his battle with Sephiroth, but his true fight was just beginning…<br />
    <br />
