"Within a few years, all the trees on the mountain withered away. I don't know
if the
reactor was good or bad. A lot of monsters have been appearing in the last twelve months... It was all right when
they were building the reactor, while they were still building it, but once it's been completed, it's been bad."
(Nibelheim Inn Keeper) |

"Normal members of SOLDIERS are humans that have been showered with Mako. You're
different from the others but still human. But what are they [the top secret 'experiments' in Corel Reactor] ?
They've been exposed to a far higher degree of Mako than you. Mutated living organisms produced by the Mako energy.
That's what these really monsters are. [...]
No! Was I? Was I created this way too? Am I the same as all these monsters? You saw it! All of them... were humans.
Ever since I was small, I felt that I was different from others. Special in some way. But... not like this.
Am I human?" (Sephiroth) |

"An apparently dead organism was found in a 2000 year old geological stratum.
Professor Gast named that organism Jenova!
X year X month X day: Jenova confirmed to be an Ancient. "
(Sephiroth reading Shinra files in Nibelheim mansion) |

"Professor Gast! Why didn't you tell me anything? Why did you die?
[turns to Cloud] Let me be alone."
(Sephiroth) |

"You ignorant traitor. I'll tell you. This Planet originally belonged to the Cetra.
Cetra was an itinerant race. They would migrate in, settle the planet, then move on. At the end of their hard, long
journey, it was said they would find the Promised Land and supreme happiness.
But those who disliked journeys appeared.
They stopped their migrations, built shelters and elected to lead an easier life. They took what the Cetra and the
Planet had made without giving back one whit in return. Those are your ancestors. Long ago, disaster struck the Planet.
Your ancestors escaped. They survived because they hid. The Planet was saved by sacrificing the Cetra. Jenova Project
wanted to produce people with the powers of the Ancients, or the Cetra... I am what was produced."
(Sephiroth) |

"Inside of you, Jenova has merged with Tifa's memories, creating you. Out of Tifa's
memory. A boy named Cloud might've just been a part of them. Five years ago, after Nibelheim was burnt, you were
constructed piece by piece by Hojo. A puppet made up of vibrant Jenova cells, her knowledge, and the power of the
Mako. An incomplete Sephiroth clone. Not even given a number. That is your reality."
(Sephiroth) |

"It looked like... our dead mothers... and our dead brothers. Showing us
specters of their past... It first approached as a friend, deceived them and finally gave them the
virus. The Cetras were attacked by the virus and went mad... transforming into monsters." (Ifalna)

"I offered the woman with my child to Professor Gast's Jenova project.
When Sephiroth was still in her womb, we took Jenova's cells..." (Hojo) |
