Because Cloud wanted to keep Sephiroth sane before he let his own anger and desperation get the best of him.

From:

[Certainly not the reply he expected to hear, but this is something they could use in their favor in proving Sephiroth's sanity.]

Therefore, why would the General kill one of the few to believe in his sanity unless provoked? This alone should be able to prove that Sephiroth is no fiend, but no one shall listen.

From:

Not until Cloud returns, no.

And so, we hide. Bide our time while they go on a fools errand. In the meantime, Angeal and I will be here for Sephiroth. If possible, we may have help from others, but who knows.

From:

I trust you already know that you can rely upon my aid, but I tell you this now---I may stray from Lindblum soon. My reasons lie upon my injured niece who've traveled to Narshe as of late.

I know naught of what has happened, but Lady Ashe is quite unwell.

From:

Alright and good luck.

From:

[After much thought, Halim decides to ask on this one favor.] Genesis, if the General is well enough---shall I be given the chance to speak with him?

From:

From:

[He's been standing on the docks, watching the water below when Genesis had come to him and spoke. Nodding once in acknowledgment, he took the phone from the redhead, least he could do was apologize for possibly causing the man trouble with his abrupt departure]

Marquis?

From:

[Quite surprised that Genesis actually honored his request, Halim was truly glad to hear Sephiroth's voice.]

General, I thank the Heavens for allowing you both the clarity of mind to leave Lindblum when you did. I am certain you already know of the knaves who plot to rein you in. After much deliberation regarding this matter, it would seem that reason alone couldn’t thwart their efforts.

Therefore, I shall ask the two of you to practice patience during this conflict. Rhapsodos has already ensured me of your innocence in this unfortunate case, but I must ask---what transpired between you and Strife?

From:

[The knowledge that there were those who planned to hunt for them was nothing new, he'd expected such even before Genesis had told him of it. The knowledge that he somehow seemed to still remain within the Marquis' good graces despite what happened was good to know...even if the question asked wasn't one he cared to discuss for any length of time. The voice was civil and calm, if somewhat cool when he answered.]

He called me out to meet with him before the gate. I had no reason then to refuse seeing him so I agreed to meet with him. Unfortunately it would seem that doing such was a mistake on my part.

From:

So it was him who sought you, and not as his fiance as told. You did not hunt him down, he was the one to initiate this madness.

From:

Correct. He called me earlier within the evening of the day I made my departure, he also requested that I come alone.

From:

I take it that Cloud Strife knew of the malady you suffered days prior, and yet he was still willing to seek you?

For what reason did he give for this sudden meeting? During your entire stay at my manor, not once did Strife bother to see if you was well.

Therefore, I believe his intentions were less than pure.

From:

[There is some small amount of silence, since the first statement reminded him of the fact there had been that unfortunate accident with the video capability on his phone. Finally he sighs rather quietly before responding to the man]

You would be correct. Considering my 'malady' was displayed for all to see upon the network unfortunately.

He gave no reason on the phone, though..[a small pause, the tone is almost slightly bitter, though its rather a subtle bitterness] all he seemed to desire after I arrived was to stare at this new appendage I have now. That..and rant.

[Silence again reigns for few moments before he finally speaks again]

As I said, it was my mistake to agree to the meeting considering I knew he was still recovering from that affair with the Rooks on the docks.

From:

[So not only did Cloud seek out the General, but he purposely roused the fragile minded man's rage during an ill-conceived rant. Strife truly did have a death wish...]

Strife was already stricken with an illness of his own or was he attacked by the Rooks?
