There is no rest for the weary.
Or that is how the saying goes. Many believe this to be life's quote. When you feel as though you can't go any further...something else comes along to make you push past it and continue moving. The Planet is no different. Many have fought for the freedom of the people or the Planet's survival. After the defeat of Sephiroth, all thought it would be prosperous and life would resume normally. However, as a result of the Planet's abuse over the years, having the mako from it sucked dry and with next to nothing to help it, the Planet refuses to give Mako. Now, the people of Planet scramble for some type of energy source and are reduced to having to use fuel. They drill holes in the ground, looking for oil for vehicles, cities are now powered by a different form of electricity. The era of peace seemed to be upon them all, until two years later...
The events of Advent Children struck everyone hard. They didn't expect such evil to show themselves. Geostigma gripped nearly everyone, threatening to cause their lives to wither away within death's cold grasp. Being attacked by remnants of Sephiroth, things looked bleak, especially to the citizens of Edge. However, a shining ray of hope emerged and the heroes who had defeated Sephiroth before came to help once again. Once more proving that they are, without a doubt, Heroes of the Planet. During the chaos of the fighting, a spring was accidentally stumbled upon...one that cured Geostigma simply by it touching the victims. After the battles took place and the heroes of the Planet were victorious, everyone in Edge was healed of their Geostigma. And once more it would look like an era of peace would arise.
Though the Planet was still upset. It didn't want the people to be happy with what they had...it had suffered for many years, being sapped of energy and slowly decaying. Now, the Planet was going to strike back...and this time in a much more horrifying way. Reports of Mako Geysers flew all over the place, shooting up in the middle of pathways and filling rivers with Mako energy. The Mako energy corrupted the water, mutating animals and monsters, sometimes even mutating humans. However...in Gongaga, a Mako Geyser opened up right in the middle of the town, killing any who lived there, or so everyone thought. When a search party went in, only one man came out and he screamed that there were demons living within the ruins.
A Mako Geyser is a large hole in the ground which causes Mako to explode outward and engulf a large area around it. Only three reported sightings of these geysers have been seen and those who have been near the geysers have shown effects of the stigma...only all over their body. The spring found in the church in Midgar seems to have no effect on the new form of stigma, but rather it is a Mako poisoning of sorts. The one survivor of the Gongaga incident said that there were demons, but in actuality, they were mutated humans, having lost their humanity and just destroyed any who come near them other than themselves. Monsters become larger and more aggressive, people go crazy when effected by it.
With this growing threat, Rufus Shinra begins work in reproducing Shinra in a new light. Wishing to help the Planet and to aid those who are scared and frightened of what is going on. Together with the Turks, he is trying to find a way to stop these Geysers. By rebuilding Shinra, he is looking for more Turks, more intelligent minds, and definitely more muscle that can help him remain safe and protect the people of Edge, where he has set up his new headquarters.
Remnants of Sephiroth have been seen, those with silver hair and black cloaks and Mako blue eyes of a SOLDIER. With a menacing gleam in their eyes, it is hard not to be able to see that they are destined to become a powerful force. It could be them, after all, that are causing the Mako Geysers to rise. However, only time will tell what will happen to the Planet.
And so, for those tired of fighting...there is no rest for the weary. The fight for survival has just begun. And it's the toughest fight yet.
