Death of Aeris

Description

This song popped onto my ipod the other day- and I was floored by old memories.

for those of you whom do not know- this is tribute to one of the most famous and heartbreaking scenes in video game history- as a character you’ve been building up and developing for dozens of hours gets actually killed off for the remainder of the story.

as i've said before: I credit the FF7 game for really getting me into artwork back in the day, owe the game a lot.

"Seven seconds 'til the end... what will you do with it, I wonder?"

From the remake, just after Fate's power is shattered. It takes seven seconds in the original game's cutscene for Sephiroth to appear and finish running Aeris through.

I suspect Sephiroth is taunting Cloud there, or trying to derail that vital moment of story now that Fate no longer has power to enforce the old narrative.
