Final Fantasy VII/Wall Market

Cloud crash-lands and goes blank. This leads to more confused dreams. As he comes to, you find yourself in a church. The flower girl from slums, Aeris, is here tending her flowers. Talk with her about things until someone who calls himself "not very important" appears. And a moment or two later, you note that the person is actually very important. This is Reno, one of the Turks, who has come to grab Aeris with a couple of Shin-Ra soldiers. So, Cloud and Aeris attempt to escape.

The climb to the top isn't easy. Aeris is down, and gets attacked by Shin-Ra soldiers. When she gets attacked, you either have the option to have her wait or let her fight or run. If you let her wait, you can push one of the barrels down from above. If you push the wrong one, you have to fight anyway. The fights aren't too hard; the only bad thing is that Aeris doesn't have much melee fighting power and she has no Materia. If you give her some though, she'll be much more useful as she is the strongest magic caster in the game. Even without Materia, the soldiers aren't too difficult to defeat.

To escape the fights, push the barrels in the following order. Keep in mind that if you push the wrong barrel every time, you may lose the chance to date her later on:


 * 1) The one way off to the left.
 * 2) The center one in back.
 * 3) The one off to the right.

Aeris' house
After this, you escape across the rooftops, Cloud volunteering to be Aeris' bodyguard. When you get back on the ground, head left (there's a save point near here too) and up. Talk to the folks in the slums. There's a weird person with a weird tattoo in the pipe. There's a Materia and weapons store where you can get Titan Bangles which may help things a little bit. Head left from the market area to get to Aeris' house.

If you go over to the garden on the side of the house, there is an Elixir and a Cover materia. After you retrieve them, head inside. It's a good idea to stay overnight, except that Elmyra wants you to leave before Aeris notices a thing. In the room prepared for Cloud, there's a Potion and a Phoenix Down. Don't run when you leave or Aeris will hear you and send you back to the room. Head through the slums and take a left at the intersection.

Aeris is here after all and she wants to tag along. Head through the maze in the next room, watching out for Hell Houses, and you'll arrive at the Sector 7 gate. Aeris stops by the playground, and just as you start to relax, a Chocobo cart comes from Sector 7, with a familiar barmaid aboard. You'll then follow her into Wall Market.

Wall Market
As you walk around and ask people things, you'll soon find out that Tifa has become a candidate for inclusion to the Honeybee Manor, and new inductees have to be personally checked by someone called Don Corneo. Corneo's manor is fairly easy to find, all the way up the path to the north. The problem is, the guy on the door will only let women in. Aeris is the only woman around, and Cloud just cannot let a frail maiden like Aeris, despite her helpfulness and willingness to take risks, be sinfully savaged by these villains. Luckily, Aeris has a wonderful idea to dress Cloud up as a girl.

Your next objective is to get all the items to pass as a female. You're only required to have a dress and a wig, but the more you get the better your disguise will be, and different things happen in the mansion depending on how well dressed you are.

The dress
If you talk to the clothing store clerk, she says that her father does the clothes designing, and he's lounging in the bar without any inspiration whatsoever. Talk to him and convince him to make a dress for Cloud. He accepts the challenge, then tells you to scurry off. The best dress is the Silk Dress. Here are the optiosn:
 * 1) Soft and Shiny = Satin Dress
 * 2) Soft and Shimmer = Silk Dress
 * 3) Clean and (Shiny or Shimmers) = Cotton Dress

The wig
You'll get this by going to the gym and entering the squatting competition, which you can win or lose. After you have the wig, return to the clothing store and head up to the Corneo Mansion. The best possible wig is the Blonde Wig.
 * 1) Win = Blonde Wig
 * 2) Tie = Dyed Wig
 * 3) Lose = Wig

The cologne
In the bar, there's a woman in the bathroom who's having severe digestion problems. Go to the restaurant, get any of the meals, and you'll get a pharmacy coupon. Head to the pharmacy and exchange the ticket for a digestive medicine, a disinfectant or deodorant. Take whichever one you've chosen back to the bar, and the woman will give you a cologne. The best one is the Sexy Colgne.
 * 1) Digestive Medicine = Sexy Cologne
 * 2) Disinfectant = Cologne
 * 3) Deodorant = Flower Cologne

The tiara
Go up the rightmost path on the lower screen, past the man with the big cooking pot. The man in the store wants to know what's in the inn's vending machine, but can't check it out himself because he's been banned. Go to the inn and pay for the night. Get one of the items from the vending machine and take it back to the man. Depending on which item you purchased, he'll give you a different tiara. The best one is the Diamond Tiara.
 * 1) 200 Gil Item = Diamond Tiara
 * 2) 100 Gil Item = Ruby Tiara
 * 3) 50 Gil Item = Glass Tiara

The underwear
Talk to the indecisive man pacing on the lowermost Wall Market. At one point, he'll can't make up his mind and will give his Membership Card to the Honeybee Manor. Take some peeks into the occupied rooms, and look around with. You'll get a glimpse of foreshadowing with President Shin-Ra, and also get your first peek at Cait Sith. Before leaving, get the Makeup from one of the girls. Most importantly, by poking around here, you'll get the best accessory, Lingerie.
 * 1) Enter &$#% room = Lingerie
 * 2) Enter Group room = Bikini Briefs

Corneo's Mansion
Head all the up the path to Corneo's place and the guard outside will let you and Aeris in. Head upstairs and through the open door, where you'll meet Tifa again, who explains what's going on. After some discussion, Corneo's lackey comes and asks you to show up in his room.

Corneo will pick one of the three girls depending on what items Cloud has dressed up in. If Corneo picks Tifa or Aeris, Cloud ends up in a room with some drooling men. He takes off the dress, and they attack you. There's a Phoenix Down in the room too. If Corneo picks Cloud (and you need the above items to do this), the whole thing is a little bit shorter. Remember to steal the Phoenix Down in the lackies' room if Cloud isn't selected, as well as the Hyper behind Corneo's bed.


 * Tifa will be selected if you have just the basic items (Dress, Wig), or if you have the worst possible items that you can get (Glass Tiara, Cologne, etc.).
 * Aeris will be selected if you have the moderately good items (Ruby Tiara, Dyed Wig, Flower Cologne, etc.).
 * Cloud will be selected if you have the best possible items (Diamond Tiara, Blonde Wig, Sexy Cologne, etc.).

If Cloud isn't chosen, choose "Lets Get Aeris" if you want Cloud to be able to date her later on. Either way, Cloud, Aeris and Tifa get to intimidate Corneo, and learn of a terrifying plan to destroy Sector 7. Just as you're about to leave, he keeps talking to stall while his trap gets set up correctly, then sends the heroes down to the sewers with a flick of a switch.
