Summary
“I will never be a memory. I am the architect of the new Genesis.”
Sephiroth’s existence is the culmination of a divine split designed to prevent the end of all things. Originally the legendary hero of Shinra, his discovery of his parasitic origins ignited a descent into madness that transformed him from a planetary threat into a multiversal conqueror.
Tethered to Bianca Moore by the Filum Aeternum, Sephiroth transcends his obsession with Cloud Strife to focus on a Dark Rebirth of the cosmos alongside his eternal equal. This dossier tracks his absolute evolution across billions of years: from the labs of Hojo to the Edge of Creation, and finally to his throne as the Sovereign of the Mortal Plane.

Summary
From the rain-slicked streets of Seattle to the edge of a cosmic singularity, Bianca Amara Moore is a soul defined by the violent intersection of the divine and the infernal. This dossier tracks the evolution of the Harbinger of Death and Rebirth: beginning with her life as a mortal author protected by a Roman vampire, through her brutal awakening at the hands of the demon lord Asmodeus, and her eventual fall into the world of Gaia. Bound to Sephiroth by the Red String of Fate, Bianca transcends her role as a victim of Shinra’s experiments to become the Matriarch of Rebirth—a sovereign goddess destined to collide with a neutron star and rewrite the laws of existence.

Summary
Prestige can often make one lonely. Sephiroth has never had many friends and with so many of SOLDIER defecting, he's never felt more alone without his closest friends. A chance encounter with a hostile woman leaves him with yet another person he desperately wants to keep safe.
Sapphire was raised by two ex Shinra employees with secrets to hide and a grudge against the company. She's conflicted between what she's been told about Shinra and Sephiroth the demon himself versus what she experiences.Bookmarked by Darkened Wings (Bardic_Tales)
