[The notebook Sephiroth picks up turns out to be a journal. The Ancient writing looks smoother than what they saw scribbled on the door, so perhaps the writer was an Ancient this time?
Reading an early entry gives him this:]
Despite all the setbacks, the Tower is finally approaching completion. I would have preferred to secure some of the unstable floors, but the science staff insist what we have is sufficient. I cannot truly blame them for not wanting to spend further resources on nonessential construction. We all know that nothing is more important now than stopping Narayana.
This Tower is our pledge to all of existence -- we shall not surrender. This world has suffered enough for our failures. It is our duty to set things right once more.
[The books are, of course, titled in Ancient as well. Translating the text on the spines will reveal them to be studies in crystal research. Should Kidd look close enough, she might also notice a folded piece of paper sticking out from between a book and the end of a shelf. The careful placement suggests it didn't get there by accident.]
