[gathering hay is a very important job...]

That's true. [by now they've entered the barn, so let's check out the hay.]

Well, like I mentioned Cloud, Tifa and Barret knew each other first. Cloud and Tifa were friends when they were kids. They're from the same village, but Cloud left to join the army when he was a teenager. After he quit, he picked up work as a mercenary and that's how he ended up in Midgar where we all met. Barret's the leader of a group called Avalanche. They're people who're working together to help protect the planet and fight against a company called Shinra. They're an electric company that's using the planet's lifeforce for energy, but because of how much is being used the planet's suffering.

Cloud was hired to help Barret with a job because Tifa asked him to. [she thinks on this, pausing a little to push on a bale of hay to check for its comfort.] The first time we met, he said he was involved in some dangerous things. But that didn't really matter, I think. Especially when the next time I met him he came crashing through my roof at the church and landed right in my flowerbed. But he's an ex-SOLDIER and knows how to fight, so I made him my bodyguard.

[aerith could defend herself, but cloud as a bodyguard really did benefit her at that moment. she pauses as if she's thinking about how much, exactly, she wants to tell him. she'd said it was a long story, but perhaps she'll skip a few details here for now.]

Red, Yuffie, Cait and Vincent are all people we met on our travels. Red is someone we rescued and brought with us on our way out of Midgar, and the other three were in other places. But we all had the same goal to take down Shinra. [...] And to stop Sephiroth from destroying the planet.
