A black shadow loomed above the City of Edge, admiring the view.
It was good to be back. Of course when one was gone for such a long time, things often changed. Not that that was always a particularly bad thing. Change that is. Things always changed, it was a natural way of life. People changed as they grew older and matured. Places changed as, people discovered new needs and wants, or simply because it was better that way for them to change. It was more efficient.
Sometimes, though, never changed.
Perceptions, deep-seated emotions, personality traits, governments, among other things, these things often stayed the same, either because they were nigh-impossible to change, or because the person did not want them the change. Once again it was more efficient that way. Or simply people did not have the power to change things.
Power was what made the world go around. Whether that power came in the form of wealth, influence, or perhaps some other outside source, well that certainly depended on the wielder, did it not?
Power was an interesting thing, the person with the most power, was often the one in control. And when they weren’t in control, well then things would need to be changed to shift dramatically into their favor. And the more powerful that person was, then so much more dramatic that changed needed to be.
And so dramatic it would be. All it required was patience, and the right tools for the job. As well as the removal of certain……obstructions. And that would be the most fun part of all.
The Nightmare was returning, and once again he would be the one to change the world. All would fear him once again, much as they already did. But first he would need to pay a visit to an old friend. Fucking with peoples’ minds was just so much fun.
The creature known as Sephiroth smiled. His time was growing ever nearer.
Perhaps it was time to pay a visit to a certain bar. After all it would be so much fun.
