…๑۩†нєяє ℓιєѕ ℓυ¢яє¢ια ¢яєѕ¢єηт†۩๑… This wandering soul knew no rest, for it was trapped here in memory. Bound by the wickedness that was inherit in those who sought prestige and coveting what was not meant to be theirs. Fools, all of them. The man who wanted what he could not have. The beast who sought destruction for knowledge. A woman who knew so little of the consequences of her own ill-advised actions. Each went their own way, but her. Because every one of them had some kind of remnant left behind to suffer.
۞ They'd all perished in their way, but each retained some part of their soul in the world of the living where they ought not to be. Regret, greed and rage in turn. Did he know how much she suffered here by herself? There would be no sweet lover to turn to here, for that beloved soul returned to the Lifestream already, to pass on -- free as could be. But she did not pass. What remained with Jenova stayed behind to linger with great disdain, dragging the inconscient soul to come across her to the depths of Hell to rot. Oh, there were so many souls out there, so many men who fell to her wiles. So many bleeding hearts felt false sympathy for the weeping angel in white, her face obscured by her shaking hands.
۞ Such idiots. Did this one think to save her, too? He would be doomed. Yes, this one especially, she saw. She knew. She recognized. She'd loved and hated this man in turns until her mind did not know where the hate or the love started and began.
۞ "Are you really here, Vincent?" Lucrecia inquired, her voice echoing the last word. "Where have you been?" she asked once more, face lowering. Pale, translucent digits moved up until they hid away the face of the woman of whom many evils had been rooted. "I have no idea where everyone was...or where my baby went...where did my baby go, Vincent?"
