I am Sephiroth.

[Though which Sephiroth is it? The ID number attached to the post reads S1297993 rather than S1727002, for those who know there are two Sephiroths, are familiar with those numbers, and take the time to notice. Then again, the tone of the post may also be a hint.]

I have been researching the monsters in the Tower. I am curious as to why they are treated so differently than we are, although they likely come from other worlds as well. They have no collars, and they roam freely. They are not wire constructs containing souls, as we are. They were not altered during the glamour failure. They appeared as normal. Many of them are absent during the day. Where do they go? What is their nature? Why are they here?

If you have any ideas or theories, I would be interested in hearing them.

Also, I have noticed that there is a discrepancy in my memories. If there is anyone capable of reading or altering memories, please contact me.

Thank you.

What on earth is going on in this place? [Don't mind Nero. He's a little confused by all of the recent network posts lately. ]

This isn't exactly the greatest time for explanations, but I sure as hell would appreciate one just about now. 

What's all this about talk about food poisoning going around? To anyone who might of accidentally eaten poisoned food you have my condolences. That's gotta blow hard. Everything seemed alright a moment ago. Guess it all went to hell, huh?

Geez, this is really starting to get out of hand.

Oh, right. Before I forget, my name's Nero.

Apparently I've been at this tower before and for some reason I don't remember any of it. Don't take it personally if I can't remember names or anything.

[ Greetings people of the tower, have the King of Evil who cursed the tower this month appear on the terminals, for the first time in over six months. He looks fairly neutral, with a very light smile. ]

So long as it been since I last posted here, and yet I see nothing changed. The same cycle has been repeating over and over again, both here and where we come from. Higher powers play with those they see as inferior... Cruel and pointless games meant to satisfy their own amusement. From the tortured crowds sometimes a voice arise, then many--

But at the first bone tossed their way, the mindless masses go back in rank behind the higher powers they chose to venerate as deities. At the first occasion to forget, they chose blissful ignorance. Yes... In the end, complacency reigns. People always return to their meaningless preoccupations and lose of sight what should matter most.

[ He pauses and shakes his head in disapproval before continuing. ]

Have voice even been heard in this tower? Many entertained -and without a doubt still do- the idea that following certain golden haired women would bring them what they longed for. Yet, nothing happened. All they did was replace a deplorable situation with another, build a false hope they could comfort themselves with. All they did was turn a blind eye on reality.

Not a voice arise to stand against the status quo. [A very short and deep chuckle.] How pathetic. Tell me, Tower of Animus, do you not believe time has come for you to awaken and bring about an end to this?

Legend League! Where you at?

Roll calls aside, need some help/advice/whatever the hell. Anyone have a clue what floor it is where power fizzing starts? It's total bullshit that it goes all the way up to that atrium right under the apartment floors. Forewarned is forearmed and all that.

Oh, and if there are any monster nests or something I should keep the hell away from. Walking into the beehive is not what I had planned for my week, thanks.

[She looks tired, and rather sad.]

It's difficult to believe I have already been in this tower for five years.
 
I believe I am in need of a hard drink. Is anyone interested in joining me?

I think I was home. Or I am expected to believe that was home.

... Has anyone else seen an empty wasteland like that? It seemed real, but I don't trust that.

[Ryuho looks uncertain, as if trying to understand what to say. Finally, he decides on saying nothing.]
