REDEMPTION
It starts with one word. It's what everyone wants. The chance to erase our sins and start anew. To be washed in righteousness and hide from our past mistakes. To rid ourselves of our flaws. To make up for something we did wrong. Whether you weren't able to keep a secret or you weren't able to save a friend, Redemption is all you want. And Redemption is what you'll receive. The only problem is, by whose definition.
In the same way that a good man's nature is to do good, and an evil man's nature is to do evil, so too does the nature of Redemption depend on the person who wants it. One man's Redemption may be saving the world, and another man's Redemption is destroying the world.
It's time to earn your Redemption, and hope to god that the world doesn't end.
It's been seven months since the destruction of Omega. The World Regenesis Organization, funded by Rufus ShinRa, is larger than ever and doing its best to help the people of the world. Rufus has created a new company, ShinRa Industries, in order to try and help fill the needs of the people. they largely distribute medicine at a cheap price, but they also have Military and Weapons Development departments, and the Turks as well.
Rivaling ShinRa is a company called Apollo, the newest threat to our world. His name is Damien Reese, and his lust for power is like no others. Damien is the brother of Dr. Donovan Reese, the President and Head of Science of Apollo Industries. Damien runs a group called the Underground, which is run in the basement levels of Apollo. The Underground is filled with soldiers who have survived the pokes and prods of Donovan, and have become more powerful, only shadowed by those with Jenova cells. Damien plans to use the Underground to take over the world and create an empire greater then the old ShinRa.
However, something else is happening on the Planet. Genesis Rhapsodos has awoken from his slumber, and has become the servant of the Goddess Minerva. The Northern Crater has been wiped clean from the face of Gaia, and in its place stands the Tower of Gaia. The Tower is the base of operations for the Knights of Gaia, a group of individuals loyal to the Goddess, who are trying to save the Planet. They would do anything to save Gaia, even if it means wiping her of all human life. In order to be closer to her Planet, the Goddess Minerva chose someone to act as her avatar on Gaia. Aerith Gainsborough was pulled from the Lifestream, deemed by the Goddess to be the one best suited for the job. Also risen from the Lifestream is Zack fair, who serves as the knight of the Goddess, his only job is to protect his girlfriend Aerith no matter what.
And so the stage is set, another tale of war and ruin, of swords and souls is put into motion.
