But after that incident, she never smiled in front of me again.” (Japanese translation of previous quote) “Heaven’s dark harbinger...the Calamity...Jenova.” “They [Tseng and Elena] had it coming.  They got their hands on Jenova’s head.” “Please tell Yuffie this is MY phone, and she has no right to call it.” “What were you involved in?  What was tormenting you?” “W-What?  No... no I can't dance.” “Her research... wasn’t it the Jenova project?  She... was in... pain.  I...  Why?” “Were you in pain?  Back then... I couldn’t...  I have to make it there...to Shin-Ra Manor.  To find out about her.” “Shin-Ra Manor.  Everything, everything started there.  All of my sins... call that place home.  I might find something out about her... her research.  Lucrecia.  I’m going back, again.  To the place you were, to Shin-Ra Manor.”
