Aerith knows where people go when they die. Rejoining that energy ... the screams and cries she sometimes hears supports AVALANCHE's claims.
"... I'm sorry, I got distracted," she murmurs when she catches her thoughts. How rude -- she can't ignore Ami. "The history of the villages ... oh! I could show you a part of it."
