Final Fantasy 7 Ever Crisis has shed brand new light on Sephiroth's backstory, and it somehow makes the character's story even more tragic.
Sephiroth, as we all know, is lied to and experimented on by Shinra, or more specifically Hojo, the maniacally evil scientist. Sephiroth has always been convinced his mother is Jenova, as far back as the original Final Fantasy 7 in 1997, and Final Fantasy 7 Ever Crisis has weaved in a new layer to this backstory.
In Sephiroth's chapters of Ever Crisis, which just went live in the mobile game, he appears with a photo of someone he believes is Jenova. However, this isn't Jenova - it's actually none other than Lucrecia, Sephiroth's original birth mother, who appeared briefly in Final Fantasy 7 in side scenes with Vincent Valentine.
