[HOLU_2: Base of Gaea's Cliff] Inside the hut
If you made it on your own here, without passing out
Now, this is a surprise!!
How many years has it been since I last saw anyone here...?
Oh, excuse me! My name is Holzoff. I've lived here for 20 years now.
You mind listening to the stories of a lonely climber?
If you passed out
You awake?
You collapsed at the Great Glacier. It's a miracle you're all right.
My name is Holzoff. I've been living here 20 years now.
If you are planning to head North, you'd better listen to my story.
Talk to Holzoff
Why don't we go to the next room and sit down.
Go through the door
[HOLU_1: Base of Gaea's Cliff]
Holzoff:
You ever hear about those who challenged the cliff?
Yeah
The first time my friend Yamski and I tried to climb the cliff was 30 years ago.
No
There's an old legend that says something fell from the sky here a long time ago.
That's what's supposed to have pushed the land up and formed this cliff.
30 Years ago, Yamski and I took this cliff on to see what was on the other side.
But, we weren't prepared for it. We did expect the temperature to be low but...
On that cliff, there's always a biting cold wind. The cold air lowers your body temperature.
Yamski, was below me. He cut his own rope...
...and I didn't even notice...
Ever since then, I've settled here... continuing to challenge the cliff, and provide warning and shelter to my fellow climbers.
If you're going to climb the cliff, there's 2 precautions you'll need to take.
(OK)button Confirm route. [Square]button Push repeatedly to raise body temperature.
First, check your route... It's hard to find because of all the snow.
Second, once you get to a ledge, make sure you warm yourselves up.
Understand?
One more time
Yes
You must've used a lot of energy getting up here... Better get some rest before you head out.
Want to get some rest?
Rest
Don't rest
Go outside
[GAIAFOOT: Base of Gaea's Cliff]
Barret:
You know, I've been thinkin'...?
What is it?
...Seein' a place like this, makes you realize how awesome nature is.
But, if anyone ever told me to live here, I'd tell them to ...you know...
I tell you one thing though, If I did have to live here I'd change things around 'n' make it better.
I guess the total opposite of this would be......Midgar.
When you think of it that way, Shinra don't seem so bad...
Uuuuuurrrrrgh!!
What the hell am I sayin'!? The Shinra, not bad!?
Save it for later
Cloud:
We'll secure the route. You come up later.
Talk to party members to change party
Barret:
Y'know...standing here like this...
Kinda makes you feel like the Planet's not on our side, don't it?
Of course we can't even compete. I mean... The Planet don't even notice us humans...
Tifa:
This blizzard's nothing! I gotta say that or...brr...
Red XIII:
I wonder what's at the top of that cliff? Well we shall see...
Cid:
Damn! If I could just get back in the air, this cliff would be nothing!
Yuffie:
Brrrr, I can't take this cold!!
Cait Sith:
This is secret info, but... Rufus's going to arrive here, too.
Vincent:
I wonder what's on the other side of the cliff...
Change members?
Yes
No

But Tifa! Isn't this an illusion?
Vincent:

Cid:
What the hell? Why Nibelheim!?

This is an illusion Sephiroth made up.
He's trying to confuse us.
It'll be all right. As long as we know it's an illusion, there's nothing to be afraid of.
Come on, let's keep going.

...What's wrong, Tifa? I told you before, right?
As long as we know that it's just an illusion, there's no need to be scared.

Depending on the third party member
Barret:
Hey, you awright!?
Barret:
Damn! This was an illusion.
Red XIII:
You all right!!
Red XIII:
We were in an illusion...
Yuffie:
He...hey, you! You alright!?
Yuffie:
Oh, a dream! But it felt so real...
Cait Sith:
Everyone OK!?
Cait Sith:
Umm...this was a hallucination.
Vincent:
...You all right?
Vincent:
Hmm...it was an illusion.
Cid:
He...hey you! You alright!?
Cid:
Damn! This was all made up.
Cloud:
Sephiroth! I know you're listening! I know what you want to say!
Cloud:
That I wasn't in Nibelheim five years ago.
That's it, isn't it?
Sephiroth:
I see you finally understand.
Cloud:
What you are trying to say is that you want to confuse me, right?
But...even making me see those things won't affect me.
I remember it all. The heat of the fire...the pain in my body... and in my heart!
Sephiroth:
Oh, is that so?
You are just a puppet... You have no heart...and cannot feel any pain...
How can there be any meaning in the memory of such a being?
What I have shown you is reality. What you remember, that is the illusion.
Talk to party members
[Party member]:
Cloud...
[WOA_3: Whirlwind Maze]
Cloud:
Hmm...I see,
Cloud:
Guess I shouldn't have worried about it.
Tifa:
Sure, ok.
Tifa:
I think I overdid it a little, too.
Cloud:
Tifa, you'll be alright now.
Tifa:
Really?
Cloud:
Yeah, sorry I made you worry. I solved the mystery.
Tifa:
What...do you mean?
Cloud:
I'll explain it to you later. There's something I need to do.
Confusion
[NIVL_B22: Nibelheim] Outside houses on fire
Talk to Sephiroth
Sephiroth:
...Do you understand?
Cloud:
I don't want to understand.
Cloud:
But, I want to ask you one thing. Why...why are you doing this?
Sephiroth:
Ha, ha, ha......
I want to take you back to your real self.
The one who gave me the Black Materia that day...
Sephiroth:
Who would have ever thought a failed experiment would prove so useful?
Hojo would die if he knew.
Cloud:
Hojo!? What does he have to do with me!?
Sephiroth:
Five years ago you were...
...constructed by Hojo, piece by piece, right after Nibelheim was burnt.
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.
Talk to Sephiroth again
Sephiroth:
Ha, ha, ha......
Talk to Tifa
Tifa:
Cloud... Don't listen to him...
Tifa:
Close your ears! Close your eyes!
Cloud:
What's wrong, Tifa? I'm not affected by it.
...I wasn't paying attention to him.
Tifa:
All that talk of Hojo constructing you is a lie.
Don't we have our memories together?
Being kids together, starlit nights...
Sephiroth:
Ha, ha, ha...Tifa...
Why are you so worried and scared by those words?
Hmm...Shall I show everyone here what's in your heart?
Sephiroth:
Ha, ha, ha... You look like you're not feeling well.
Cloud:
...Tifa? Is Sephiroth right?
Talk to Tifa again
Tifa:
Cloud...
Cloud:
Why are you so scared? Don't worry about me. I'm all right.
No matter how confused I am, I'll never believe a word that Sephiroth says.
Cloud:
It's true that sometimes I can't figure out who I am.
There's a lot of things muddled up in my memories.
Cloud:
But, Tifa......
But you said, 'Long time no see, Cloud' right?
Those words will always support me.
I am the one you grew up with. I'm Cloud of Nibelheim.
No matter how much I lose faith in myself, that is the truth.
Cloud:
That's why you shouldn't be so scared.
No matter what anyone else says to me, it's your attitude that counts...
Tifa:
No, that's not true, Cloud......
Cloud:
What's not? Aren't I the same Cloud you grew up with?
Tifa:
That's not what I mean... I don't know how to say it...
Cloud, I need some time... Just give me a little time...
Sephiroth:
Cloud... Don't blame Tifa.
Sephiroth:
The ability to change one's looks, voice, and words, is the power of Jenova.
Inside of you, Jenova has merged with Tifa's memories, creating you.
Sephiroth:
Out of Tifa's memory......
Sephiroth:
A boy named Cloud might've just been a part of them.
Tifa:
Cloud...
Please...don't think right now.
Sephiroth:
Ha, ha, ha...... Think, Cloud!
...Cloud? Ha, ha, ha......Oh, excuse me. You never had a name...
Cloud:
Shut up...Sephiroth.
Sephiroth:
You still don't understand? Then...
Sephiroth:
Do you remember the picture that we took before we headed for Mt. Nibel?
Sephiroth:
...Tifa, you remember, right?
Sephiroth:
But there is no way he would know.
Sephiroth:
Now...what happened to that picture?
Sephiroth:
......is this it?
Sephiroth:
...Do you want to see it? It turned out pretty good.
Tifa:
Cloud...don't...
Cloud:
I...should be in the picture.
Even if I'm not in there, no worry. This is just an illusory world Sephiroth made up.
Cloud:
...Just as I thought.
Cloud:
This picture's a fake. The truth is in my memory.
...Five years ago, I came back to Nibelheim, to inspect the reactor. I was sixteen.
The town hadn't changed at all. What did I do...? Oh yeah...
If you went into Cloud's house during the flashback in Kalm
Cloud:
I saw my mom. I saw the people in town.
If you went into Tifa's room during the flashback in Kalm
Cloud:
Yeah, I went to Tifa's room. There, I...
If you played Tifa's piano during the flashback in Kalm
Cloud:
I played the piano!
If you got Orthopedic Underwear during the flashback in Kalm
Cloud:
I looked in the drawers!
If you read Tifa's entire letter during the flashback in Kalm
Cloud:
I read the letter addressed to Tifa!
Cloud:
I spent the night and went to the reactor in Mt. Nibel. I was excited about it.
Cloud:
Because that was my first mission after becoming First Class in SOLDIER.
Cloud:
...SOLDIER, First Class?
Cloud:
...SOLDIER? When did I enter SOLDIER?
Cloud:
How did I join SOLDIER?
Cloud:
Why...why can't I remember?
Cloud:
I'm...I'm...
Cloud:
That's right...
Cloud:
...I didn't have to worry about it, because I was...
Tifa:
......Cloud?
Cloud:
Let's go, Tifa. I'm...I'm all right.
Cloud:
What's wrong, Tifa?
Tifa:
Stop, Cloud!!
[NIVL_B2: Nibelheim]
Cait Sith:
Umm... this was an illusion, right?
Cid:
He...hey you! You alright?!
That was five years ago in Nibelheim... I wasn't there. That's it, isn't it?
Cloud:
Hojo!? What does he have to do with me?!
Sephiroth:
Out of the children in Tifa's memory...
Sephiroth:
Do you remember the picture that we took before we headed for the Mt.Nibel?
Sephiroth:
But there is no way that he would know.
Cloud:
I spent the night and went to the reactor in the Mt.Nibel. I was excited about it.
