((I'll do what I can... but i still don't have permission to move other people's characters. If I could get that then I could get us all the way to the Iifa tree. ))

((I'm going to go ahead and give you permission to move everyone else, should you feel so inclined. The others can catch up when they get around to it. You don't have to write each one of them moving, in fact, you can just move on an assume the others are following. Also, if you need any help doing so, just let me know and we'll work out a plan. Cloud can even help! Good deal? ))

Vivi looked around as the Gargant appeared to slow down. He squinted through the mist, which had been steadily growing thicker as they progressed onward, confirming Vivi's suspicions that the Iifa tree was truely at the end of the line. The mist was so thick that Vivi could barely see the side of the Gargant that he was straddling.
I think we are getting close guys, Vivi said to his companions. He was almost about to say something about what to suspect at the tree when there was a bright flash. For a moment he was able to see even less than before. then it was black. he looked around to see if he could still see his friends, but he looked alone. floating in space.
Vivi could almost begin to hear a small noise in the impenetrable darkness. In fact he could, and it was growing louder by the minute. Still it was quite some time, or maybe barely any time had passed at all, before the noise was identifiable. Vivi could hear the Auction house in Treno. Vivi still could not see anything, yet it almost seemed like the blackness that surrounded him was not so black as before.
Then, all at once, the world flashed before him, almost in reverse. He could see all of the world that he had been in, whichever the world had been named, and zoomed back to his world. he could see it all so clearly now, and then in the blink of an eye, he "fell" into the world and was sitting in the Auction house in Treno.
Looking around, he thought that he was finally home. He couldn't have been farther from the truth.for at that very moment Vivi watched Zidane, Dagger, and Vivi himself walk through the door. Vivi couldn't begin to describe how confused he was, when the answer came to him...
"Memoria", was all the black mage could say.
((There, I didn't know if we would all be together in Memoria, so I left that part open. if you guys want us all to tag along through each others pasts, then just join me. I also posted this in Memoria in the Iifa Tree thread to be continued there.))

((Alright, I'll use this thread for questions then ))
So, if we're in Memoria, does that mean we're seeing a hybrid of sorts, of what Vivi's memories contain, and Tifa's and Cloud's and Vincent's? Would it be some sort of Nibelheim-Midagr-and-places-from-FFIX type of castle/building? Or do I have it wrong and Memoria always looks like the same castle and the visions you have while moving through differ? The wiki wasn't very clear
If Kuja was online I'd just ask him directly, but he's not so here I am. I should really find a copy of IX and play it.
Take these plastic people. Read their lips, now let it linger. Is there anything that makes them sound sincere? Come on, tightly hold your hand, take a deep breath, give them the finger. Are you worried that your thoughts are not quite clear? Twitch!

You can basically think of it as an amalgam of different elements from different worlds, all made into a giant tower/castle. If you're inside a dream/memory, you basically get to choose what your character sees. So, say, Vivi is having a vision of his memory, Tifa may or may not see what Vivi sees. That's your choice. Sound good?

((wouldn't it almost be better do have it switch from memory to memory as you switch rooms, thus having everyone see the same thing, and giving insight into each others past? Like I am seeing a memory of mine, and everyone with me sees it, but say if we were to follow them out the door, we would go to one of Tifa's memories, or Cloud's memories. Just a suggestion))

((Honestly, if that's easier for you guys, and you all agree that you'd like it that way, then that's cool, too. I'm just leaving the option open to you guys to make it as interesting as you want it to be. But yeah, you're right, I did mean for each memory entered to be only from one character at a time. I was just pointing out that Memoria itself, minus the memories, is made of things that would be both familiar and unfamiliar to your character, because there are things from each world making up the tower. If it makes it easier for you guys to not actually see any of the tower, you guys can always skip it and just go from memory to memory as you see fit.))
