At the end of your fall, by ArtyPuppet

Summary
“He didn't look like your typical upstart vigilante though, most obviously because the young man's face wasn't covered. But there were other things too, no extra colours or logos, he was all black, the only real oddity was that he was missing a shoulder guard. Perhaps it was more odd that it's his only piece of armour. The whole thing seemed, manufactured somehow, like a uniform. His outfit would be best described as practical but that still felt wrong. Batman knew practical, he knew efficient, he knew function, just ask his utility belt, but he still had ears on his cowl. Batman was a symbol. This man was nothing.
Although, Bruce was looking at the man after his sword had been confiscated by Cassandra. He surely cut quite the imposing figure when he was wielding that monster.”

Summary
“We who are born of the planet, with her we speak. Her flesh we shape. Unto her promised land we shall one day return. By her loving grace and providence may we take our place in paradise.” Poem about the Cetra - Final Fantasy 7 Remake
There are three Cetra left on the planet: Minerva, the embodiment of Gaia's will; Aerith, a perceptive, quirky healer with the Holy materia; and Sephya, a reckless, cocky black magic expert who knows more than she lets on.
The lives and duties of these three are linked, to each other and to the planet. They are cogs turning in a massive, intricate system.It all began with the accidental transfer of a lifetime of memories through the lifestream...
Aerith and Sephya live in relative peace with Elmyra in Midgar, but while they try to make the most of it despite the burdens on their shoulders, another of Gaia's neverending cycles is reaching its end, and Jenova is infecting the lifestream. Sephya sets things in motion by joining SOLDIER after years of planning, and the unlikely love she finds there will put everything at risk.
Theme song: "[Special Clip] Siyeon (Dreamcatcher) 'Paradise'"
