Midgar.
Once it was the bustling metropolis of the whole Planet. It was the capital of the world, surrounded by Mako reactors. The home of Shin-Ra, a big name company which invented the processing of mako into usable energy. This lead to technological breakthroughs that had given the world new light. With their mako, Shin-Ra became the only company in the world with enough power to bring down a whole country on its knees. How?
SOLDIERS.
Shin-Ra's own military might. Human beings turned into nothing more than mere killing machines, answering to Shin-Ra whenever they can. And amongst the mightiest of these human killing machines was the most infamous of all, Sephiroth. He caused the fall and destruction of Nibelheim, the murder of countless human lives and ultimately, brought about the Black Materia's power, the Meteor, which ultimately lead to Midgar's destruction. Now, it lies in ruins, a desolate landscape. Nothing but empty, broken structures littered all over the place. The bustling super-metropolis was no more. And this was where he used to live, too.
Asch moved silently across Midgar's destroyed form. His footsteps were the ones heard, louder than the howling wind. His armor capes billow with the wind, a rather disgusted look on his face. His eyes cast above Midgar, clearly disappointed about the area's current state. "Hmph...this was the place I was supposed to protect?" he questioned, kicking a stone down a rocky building.
"Pathetic."
