Holy is a great power deep within the Planet's heart. It isn't at the City of the Ancients. Aeris used the White Materia there, but the White Materia is merely the materia used to call upon Holy.

Ok so Many people probably know this but, The place near the city, the Jungly place where You leave the forest you cam see a Vine, the vine leads to a cave, is there any info on this cave, you cant go up, I obviously was taken out of the game, but when I think about it I get a very strange awkward feeling, any Info?

Whenever you walk down the street, you pass many doors you cannot enter and many paths that you will never walk. That vine in FFVII is just like those. You can't always go to all the places you can see - after all, you can see every building of every sector of Midgar during the opening FMV, but your actual ability to explore the floating city is quite limited.
That vine was probably considered as a means of getting to some other location, but that was clearly written out of the final code. So basically, from the player's perspective, it's simply another road that's cut off.

To me, this helps to create the impression that the FFVII world is vast, with so many more unexplored regions other than what you see.
