In this final epic podcast, Mr. Wes Schantz and I conclude our final foray into Final Fantasy VII. Specifically we consider (a) upward and downward spirals and connections between the end of the game and the beginning; (b) Sephiroth as a Luciferian figure and in comparison to Achilleus in Homer, Lucifer in Milton's "Paradise Lost", and Voldemort in the "Harry Potter" series, and (c) Wes and I conclude by thinking about hope and its relationship to power, and then reflecting on what this experience has meant to us.
