FF7 Returns Part 1
Set two years after the events of Final Fantasy VII, Cloud now leads a solitary life traveling the Planet as a transporter. The office of Strife Delivery Service is located in 7th Heaven, which also functions as an orphanage for children stricken with Geostigma.Three new enemies make an appearance in Advent Children. Kadaj, their leader, is in his teens, while Yazoo and Loz are known to be in their twenties. In them, Cloud sees shadows of FFVII?s fallen hero, Sephiroth. The three are after ?Mother? and refer to Cloud as their ?Brother?. Having obtained Jenova?s head, their purpose appears to be to start another Reunion. Vincent suspects that with Jenova?s cells, they may even be able to create another Sephiroth.A non-contagious disease known as Geostigma is spreading across the Planet, with Kadaj claiming that it is due to Jenova?s cells working hard in the Lifestream. Children tend to show signs of Geostigma first, though adults are susceptible to the disease as well. Symptoms of Geostigma include mental weakness, pain and even death. Cloud is known to suffer from this disease though he hides his affected arm beneath his sleeve. He is heard coughing and clutching his arm in some parts of the trailers. Victims bandage affected regions and it was Cloud?s used bandage, which Marlene found in the Church, that gave away his condition.According to the creators, the Church will feature prominently in the movie. Besides being the place Cloud calls home, it is also the stage for the fight between Tifa and Loz. Despite her valiant attempts, Tifa is ultimately defeated and Loz makes off with Marlene and the rest of the children.
