==Story==
The act begins with "The Tragedy of Five Years Ago", in which Cloud and the party regroup with the others at Kalm. Here, Cloud recalls the story of Sephiroth. After the flashback ends, this leads into "Going After Sephiroth", in which the party travel through the world, exploring the Mythril Mine and Fort Condor along the way, to reach Junon. After this, in "The Stowaway Strategy", the party reach Under Junon and sneak through Junon to board the Cargo Ship to lead to "Dangerous Voyage", in which they travel to another continent and reach Costa del Sol.
Upon reaching Mt. Corel, "Barret's Past" commences, comprising events up to the Corel Railway. "Sanctuary of Amusement" follows, in which the party travel to the Gold Saucer. This then leads to the party being thrown in Corel Prison, when Barret confronts Dyne, and the party leave on a buggy. The party then travel to Gongaga for "Gongaga, Village of Sadness", to Cosmo Canyon for "In the Land of the Study of Planet Life", and then to Nibelheim for "Unnatural Hometown".
After leaving Nibelheim, the party meet Cid in Rocket Town during "A Sleeping Village Dreaming of Outer Space". Once they obtain the Tiny Bronco, Wutai can be traveled to for the optional chapter "Homecoming of a Miserable Daughter". "Secret Date" then comprises the hunt for the Keystone and the date in Gold Saucer.
Once the Keystone is obtained, "Within the Temple of the Ancients" takes place when the party travels to the Temple of the Ancients. After leaving, "Parting with Aeris" comprises events from this point up until the City of the Ancients. This leads into "Beyond the Snow Fields", as the party travels through Icicle Inn to Gaea's Cliff. The act ends with "That Which Waits in the Northernmost Reaches", when the party travels through the Whirlwind Maze and the Weapons are summoned.
