    No to all. I'll give a hint, now.

    Hint: The third and fourth lines both have more than 1 meaning, which either directly or indirectly tie to the answer. Line 1 is indirect, and line 2 is direct.

    Right, let's have a proper think...

    In a place filled with life
    That could literally refer to any place in the game inhabited by people or monsters. That's probably why it's an indirect line. Or maybe it relates to the Lifestream.

    Death wraps itself around your finger,

    Something that is wrapped around your finger indicates that you have control over it. If it's a direct line then the place in question would have death as it's main theme. Maybe somewhere like the Cave of the Gi where the creatures can cast 'Death'. But once you've defeated Gi Nattak, there's no reason not to linger. Hmmm... doesn't seem right, somehow. Death is a theme in the Crater also.

    And now that you have lost the ultimate strife,

    You would assume that the double meaning would refer to 'ultimate' and 'strife'. Ultimate could refer to Weapon or even Cloud's ultimate weapon. Strife seems to refer directly to Cloud. But what is lost? The only things that spring to mind are losing Cloud at the Crater or Mideel... or maybe Cloud's 'ultimate strife' is losing Aeris at the City of the Ancients?

    It may be best not to linger,

    Obviously there is some sort of impending doom... The main times it would be unwise to linger are the destroying of mideel and the awakening of the Weapons.

    This might have already been suggested but the only thing that really fits for me is when the Weapons awaken and the team don't linger... they leg it in the Highwind. However, Cloud is 'lost' to the team when he falls into the 'life' stream. That's my guess.

    I can't quite link the 'Death wrapped around your finger' theme though so it's probably not right.

    No to all.

    Hint2: The second line is probably the most important in finding the answer.

    Mideel is the location of this riddle. Before the destruction due to the Ultimate Weapon. This riddle is talking about the cursed ring you can obtain in the town or by stealing from the Ultimate Weapon, who runs away from battle, hence not lingering. Also, Cloud is not in your party when all this goes down. Losing the Ultimate Strife. I think I got it.

    Sephex got it!

    In a place filled with life,
    Mideel. That's pretty much it XD

    Death wraps itself around your finger.
    A ring goes around your finger, and the cursed ring gives death sentence

    And now that you have lost the ultimate strife,
    This alludes to quite a few things. You lose Cloud Strife, you kinda lose the battle with the ultimate WEAPON, and the cursed ring kills you.

    It may be best not to linger.
    The WEAPON escaped, Mideel was destroyed, and you have death sentence.

    Sephex is up

    I thought that as well because of the cursed ring but it doesn't make sense. You don't lose Cloud in Mideel, that is where you find Cloud and at that you find the real Cloud in the Life Stream so at that point you still have yet to obtain the ultimate strife(assuming this is the correct interpretation of this clue).

    Therefore I submit that the true answer is the Rocket Blasting into Meteor.

    You leave the planet (a place full of life).
    Death is slowly wrapping itself around your finger as a sign of your commitment to die (suicide rocket! YYYYEEEAAAAAA!)
    It was a pretty bitching conflict and it didn't work (losing the ultimate strife)
    You need to get the hell off this rocket ASAP as you don't want to die. QUICK! FIND A WAY OUT!

    I still say my answer of the Northern Crater before weapon awakens makes perfect sense.

    Okay, my riddle...hmmmmm...

    Mako on one side.
    Earth on the other.
    This is close to the place.
    Where he met his mother.

    Nibelhiem, would be the place and Sephiroth would have met his "mother" Jenova. Mako on one side, that could be because his blood is likely Mako. Earth on the other, likely his human heritage. How far off am I?

    Kind of close. I'll just say you are thinking in the right direction...kinda.

    Nope. Shinwa Tsuki guess on location is much, much closer.

    I can't ever recall Sephiroth ever meeting Lucrecia...so everything about him is out the window.

    MOVING ALONG! I shall venture a guess that it is the cave where you get HP <> MP as it is close...ish to the place where he THINKS he meets his mother (what a screwed up man) and it is surrounded by earth while it takes an incredible ammount of MAKO to make those special materias.

    Nope. When I said Shinwa Tsuki was close I meant that he was right about it being in the Nibelheim region.
