[Another one in a coat like a certain brother of theirs sometimes wore... The last one had said he was a brother, too. This one feels different, though. Ominous. He hesitates a moment before speaking.]

...Are you him?

[The hesitation of another unfamiliar voice - calm, yet wary. It's a sound he hasn't heard in a while.

As it should be.]

...It depends.

Who were you expecting?

Brother. [A simple enough answer, though not particularly helpful.] ...Sephiroth. Are you him?

[Silence.]

I am not whom you seek. Although I have heard of that name before...

[And Kadaj visibly relaxes. He's been apprehensive of Sephiroth's return for a while now.]

He's our brother. You know him?

I can see the similarities.

[Probably not the best thing to say, but what does he care.]

Although I have seen him, there were rarely any conversations between us...

[Similarities... His eyes narrow slightly, and he glances away from the NV.]

I've never met him. Sephiroth. Even though- [Even though he had been him once.]

[Xemnas watches Kadaj quietly, taking note of the actions he takes, the manner in which he speaks.]

You hesitate. Why?

[Why? Good question.]

We are him. My brothers and I. But I never met him. [A pause.]

...We're supposed to bring him back. That's what Mother wants.

[And suddenly this answer has its parallels.]

In a city as strange as this one, you will never know whether or not your goals would be fulfilled.

Mm. [He's silent for a moment or two.] I don't want to bring him back. I want to show Mother I can be just as good as him. I just don't know how.

'Just as good'? This is as far as you are willing to go?

In order to surpass him...you must go farther than he had ever dared to tread. Observe your surroundings, delve deeper, and use what you can to stay in control of the situation. You appear to have the potential to do so.

You may not be able to show your Mother now, but perhaps there is a possibility where she will be able to take notice in future circumstances...

[Surpass... He used to say he'd surpass his brother, until he felt Sephiroth's power for himself. Now he's not so sure that's possible. But if this man thinks he has the potential-]

You really think so? [A pause.] But where am I supposed to start? I don't know what Mother wants me to do here.

[Anything is possible. That mindset can do wonders for anyone. The hood tilts upward, partially revealing the lower half of his face.]

Indeed. Even I had my own experiences along these lines...

Surely there are ways to reach this goal of yours. If she cannot tell you, then there is always the option to...readjust.

Have you already tested your limits within this city?

My limits? Nothing here is going to stop me, if that's what you mean.

That is...precisely what I meant.

This may stir some interest.
