I didn't know about the FF7 thing. I first played that bit in 2001/2 I think. I barely used the internet back then (twas a simpler time). With Galuf I needed reminding of what exactly happened. So that's one of the reasons I replayed. This death wasn't as shocking as it wasn't quite so sudden a plot twist as the other, and by then I was already used to Square doing these kind of stories. Galuf is a lovely beardy man though, and poor Krile, losing her parents and her grandad :-(
