The first encounter between Aerith and Marlene happens during chapter 12 of FFVII Remake, titled “Fight for Survival.” In it, both characters meet at the Seventh Heaven bar, where Marlene is hiding during a Shinra assault at the sector’s plate. During this scene, Aerith introduces herself to the girl and manages to calm her, after which Marlene reacts as if she had seen something. This event goes unexplained for the rest of the game.

However, the FFVII Remake development team recently gave more details about the exchange. Apparently, depending on each person’s sensitivity, when someone comes into contact with Aerith they may see a vision or illusion that transcends time and space. During their first encounter in FFVII Remake, Marlene saw some sort of vision that she should not have seen when interacting with Aerith. However, the development team decided to leave what she saw up to each person’s interpretation.
