If you know one thing about Final Fantasy 7, it’s that Aerith dies. There’s a reason why this pivotal story beat is one of the most well-known spoilers in gaming: it’s a moment that’s continually stunned players since 1997.

Over 25 years, rumour became myth, myth became hoax, and eventually hope became a way to genuinely save the flower girl from Midgar. This is the inside story of the players who rewrote fate and resurrected Aerith Gainsborough.

We speak to YouTuber Oddheader about his Aerith revival easter egg video, several Aerith cosplayers and fanatics, and modder Sega Chief about his incredible Final Fantasy 7 mod, New Threat that lets you keep Aerith alive.
