Mission 1 : [Accidental Video]

[It's obvious the pcd hasn't been activated on purpose; the video is just darkness initially, and the audio of the deep voice is faintly muffled.]

-unfamiliar terrain. Zack? Strife? Marshall?* Damn.

[Some rustling, and now the video has something to see, apparently the pcd was in his pocket and is now in a gloved hand, the landscape blurring by before it settles on a view of Sephiroth's face. He frowns for a moment before his expression smooths over into something blank and professional.] This isn't my- ...I assume there is someone else receiving this transmission. I wish to know where I am, why, and ideally, what's happened to my subordinates.

*ShinRa trooper #2 never actually got a name, poor guy, so he's getting one now.

That's insane. How can any being do such things?

[He shrugs at the question.] Seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, years.

And those are presumably measured by the movement of the earth around the sun, or from our perspective, the rising and setting of the sun.

Well we had a week where the sun didn't move at all. Not an inch. So was that one day, made up of a hundred hours? That's what I mean. Time's pointless here.

I see... Some people have a natural sense of time that doesn't rely on external indicators, but that's hardly common. [Sephiroth shakes his head a little. A week where the sun didn't move. It should be impossible, but... Impossible only meant you didn't know how yet.]

I'll keep that in mind, thank you.
