What purpose of Weapons in FF7?

[Almighty_gir]

going by the supposed "timeline" that the creator of the FF series sometimes talks about, it could be surmised that jenova could be from the FFX world (remember there was an explorer called Shin-Ra?). maybe jenova = sin? that would be weird...

but jenova came form outer space.. and sin is a giant whale ^^

 

[Almighty_gir]

he could also fly and Shin-Ra was leaving the FFX world to go look for new planets.

That giant whale was controlled by that weird wizard guy cause he wanted to live forever or something. He probably created the dam thing too.....been over a year since i played FFX last so i don't remember too well.
