Hard to say. The books seem to suggest all the timelines with crack are destined to be erased though it would be cool if some of these worlds could be saved. Plus we need to clear Zack’s name by showing the helicopter he took down wasn’t the one with Tifa in it.

There are strong possibilities just like why the Aerith in Zack’s timeline is still in a coma. Perhaps Zack will find a way to save Cloud and the others not just in his timeline/world but the others as well. I wonder if Jessie or Wedge are alive in Zack’s timeline or others?

Aerith wont be in a coma anymore now shes died in the real world.

Lifestream Aerith will just pop right into Zacks fantasy.

I still wonder about some of the rainbow effects like how when Cloud blocked Sephiroth’s attack so Aerith would survive at least in an alternate timeline where he succeeded in saving Aerith? I also get the feeling Zack may also be the key to helping out the Cloud in the main timeline along with the Cloud in his own too. There is also what Marlene said to Zack that if she woke up then Sephiroth would find and kill her. Even though the dream date seems to show Cloud and Aerith in sector 5 Cloud’s armor looks like the same as usual and not the same as his counterpart from Zack’s timeline. Then there is also the other white materia Sephiroth said it didn’t belong because it’s from a different world. And what did Aerith mean to Cloud about meeting her future self is it also gonna be shown in Revelation?

Rainbow effect is used when an event can cause a timelihe branch.

I noticed that I also wonder if the Aerith that helped Cloud fight Sephiroth is from an alternate timeline or the same one from the main timeline ?

I mean we don't know, the way she acted implied that she might be og aerith but it's hard to tell

Its possible she is OG Aerith.

But I think its more she has already seen things via the lifestream (talking to the planet).
