Sephiroth didn't say anything further as he felt Cloud's words wash over him. The absolute truth behind them was undeniable, and the ex-General found himself falling within the feelings of what the other was experiencing. It was so rare that they ever approached the topic of their past, but he found it far from daunting at this moment.

He could never forget the past, of how he came to be, but it was difficult to release it from the emotions that had fed and kept him going over almost the last decade.

Tightening his grip on Cloud's hand lightly, Sephiroth soon after released it as he muttered, "We should head back. The others can take care of the rest."
