![]() The card is actually less about dying and more about how the individuals left deal with endings. The Death card does not always mean death, but it does warn of change, and death certainly incites some of the greatest changes any of us will ever face. There’s a lot I can say about that, but I’ll leave it for my review/analysis of the game that will be longer than the 10k and growing post I have for FFIV. Who else but Sephiroth for Death? He’s a fallen, one-winged angel who not only (arguably) killed the most innocent and important person in FFVII, but committed genocide while doing so. – Lord Byron, “The Destruction of Sennacherib” “For the Angel of Death spread his wing(s) on the blast…” Source for picture of Sephiroth located here. If this is your first time here, please head over to my Final Fantasy Tarot page for explanation. This is my current Final Fantasy Friday post where I’ll be discussing which characters I think exemplify each card of the Major Arcana. ![]() Do not be deceived by lesser evil the Devil is whom you must truly fight… Next week’s card is The Devil, the biggest bad of them all. LightningEllen guessed the alternative Yuna, which counts as a win in my book! ![]() VII’s lady took the card, because while Yuna may have fallen in love with a dream, it’s better to do so and have them love you than to only dream of true love. The summoner not only had that trait, but bravery and selflessness to boot…though Tifa wasn’t without. ![]() When it comes to patience, Yuna and Tifa are on an even keel. My memory is a bit fuzzy on the details, but when Tifa and Cloud were floating through the Lifestream during his Heroic Blue Screen of Death, you can bet your ass she was the grounding factor that aided in his recovery.Ĭanonically (despite the number of flame wars raging across the internet), Final Fantasy VII doesn’t have an OTP, and we see in Advent how damaged Cloud still is from his experiences in the game, but despite her forlorn longing, Tifa “locked in her heart” sticks with him and is the friend he sorely needs. The angel of Temperance has one foot in the water and one foot on the ground, showing the balance needed to ride both sides. They were friends and Tifa mourned her death as much as any. Relegated to the role of the girl next door, she took second string to the “magic girl” (aka Aeris), but even their relationship wasn’t fraught with jealousy. That lady knew the meaning of patience and balance since she was the only thing that held Cloud together (albeit barely) after catastrophe. The moment I saw Temperance, I knew it was going to be Tifa Lockhart.
