“The epic type here to compare might be Milton’s Satan in Paradise Lost. Incomparably brilliant, indomitably proud, wielding weapons no one else can use…”
Sephiroth
In this Myth & Materia: Nibelheim, Jenova, Sephiroth, the Reactor experiments, and Cloud’s version of some hazy past events.
“…the paradox of Sephiroth: if we try to maintain our role as the hero beyond a certain point, we shift roles from hero to villain, to tyrant.”
We are the music-makers,
And we are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone sea-breakers
And sitting by desolate streams;
World losers and world forsakers,
On whom the pale moon gleams:
Yet we are the movers and shakers
Of the world for ever, it seems.
