His gaze didn't slip from her face at least even as Zelda looked up and away into the sky to gather her thoughts. It was a loaded question after all, and that was putting it mildly.
As the words slowly came out Sephiroth sat and politely listened to them. At first, he wasn't sure that he understood where Zelda might be coming from. Calamity, the word by it's very nature was a negative thing and not to mention what Genesis had told him about it had rooted it firmly in Sephiroth's mind as a destructive force which had to be stopped. The abomination that he was destined to become.
Yet, Zelda had a very good point with regards to how it connected them all. It begged the question, if it were a natural occurrence and if Crystallis refusing to succumb to it was really the heroic epic that the legend foretold it as. What if it were preventing some sort of larger cycle from being completed, or something?
"Legends are indeed only written by the victors." It would turn a lot of things on their head, to think about it from the opposite perspective and Sephiroth only rested on that thought for a moment before shaking his head a little. The notion that they might well be the Heroes, but that the legend was backwards like that unsettled something deep in his stomach.
A long breath was blown out before Sephiroth spoke again.
"There is a Calamity, in the world that I am from. Have you a similar phenomenon in yours? Something that may be similarly misunderstood?"
