There will always be People, Hope, and Dreams.

Final Fantasy 6 always soothes my soul when tragedies like this happen.

Kefka: Welcome, friends! I knew you’d come, so I’ve been practicing my greeting!

Party: How much do you have to destroy before you’ll have had your fill, Kefka!?

Kefka: I’ve acquired the ultimate power! Observe… Such magnificent power! You’re all nothing more than fleas compared to me now! Embrace your destruction… It is the fate of all things.

Party: To be destroyed? Maybe it is! But people can always rebuild, and new lives will always be born!

Kefka: And time will destroy all of those as well. Why do people insist on creating things that will inevitably be destroyed? Why do people cling to life, knowing that they must someday die? …Knowing that none of it will have meant anything once they do?

Terra: Because it’s not the end that matters! It’s knowing that you have something to live for right now, at this moment! Something you’ve worked for… something that’s worth protecting! As long as you have that…that’s enough!

Kefka: And did you all find your “somethings” in this broken world that just won’t die?

Party: Yes!

Terra: Love!
Locke: A person worth protecting.
Cyan: A wife and child who live on within me.
Shadow: Friends…and family.
Edgar: A peaceful kingdom.
Sabin: A loving brother who always looks out for me! Gah-ha-ha-ha!
Celes: Someone willing to accept me for who I am.
Strago: An adorable little granddaughter.
Relm: An obnoxious grandpa…who I couldn’t live without!
Setzer: Wings from a dear old friend!
Gau: You my friends! Me uwaauooo all of you!
Mog: New pals, kupo!

Kefka: Bleh! You people make me sick! You sound like lines from a self-help book! If that’s how it’s going to be… I’ll snuff them all out! Every last one of your sickening, happy little reasons for living!

Party: No, Kefka, stop!

Kefka: I wield the greatest power in existence! You may as well be the dirt on the bottom of my boots! Or the dirt stuck to the bottom of that dirt!

Party: You can’t destroy everything! People will always have dreams!

Kefka: No! I’ll destroy the entire world! There won’t be anything left to dream about!

Party: We won’t let you hurt any more people!

Kefka: Hee-hee-hee! But what fun is destruction if no “precious” lives are lost?

Party: It ends here, Kefka!
