-1Okay, I'm adding this in because I think I should explain why I'm writing this story, other than the fact that I'm a huge Cleris fan.

I've seen a lot of Aeris resurrection stories on this site, and I just have one thing to say about them: they suck. No offense to the writers, but they just aren't that good. The characters are all OOC, the plot is faulty, and everything about the stories reek of cliché.

So I've decided to take it upon myself to write a story that is truly great. It may sound arrogant of me to think that I can pull this off, but I have faith in my ability. I've played the game more times than I care to count, and feel that I have a pretty strong grip of the character's personalities and traits. I've also spent a lot of time trying to come up with a viable way of bringing Aeris back to life, while still maintaining the feel of the game.

And now that I've bored you with my ranting, on to the story. I hope you enjoy reading it, and don't forget to send me some feedback on what you think!
