   Summary

   Too long, it’s taking too long, Cloud thinks, as he notices the telltale hum of Masamune being summoned.

   Shit.

   He braces himself for the killing blow.

   It never comes.

   After the final battle against Jenova goes in an unexpected direction, Cloud and Sephiroth are left to sift through the ashes. Though they'd rather go their separate ways, fate drags them back together, as it always does. What starts as a reluctant road trip becomes a whirlwind of thrilling clashes, awakening Cetra magic, and literal soul-searching as they're drawn closer and closer...by something other than Reunion.

   Complete, but other works in this universe are ongoing.
