Lost Chapter: A Burning Passion[]
After the Warrior of Light first sights an unknown warriors attempting to close a Torsion in a snowy mountainous zone, he leads Vaan, Tifa, Rem and Sazh to intercept him. They fear that the warrior may not understand the risk of his actions, and that he might not be able to fend off attacking monsters. When Sazh critiques the unknown warrior’s recklessness, The Warrior of Light highlights that the man’s courage could yet be a great asset to their cause. This warrior turns out to be Snow Villiers.
Act 2, Ch. 7: Respite's Authenticity[]
Sephiroth usurps Materia and becomes a god of the world of respite. As part of his strategy to destabilize the wills which support the world, Sephiroth conjures countless dark manikins of Zack Fair and disguises them as lifelike clones of many of the warriors of light. He sends them to infiltrate the ranks of the warriors, where will then degrade into monsters. After Zack confronts his original dark manikin and reclaims his brilliance and memories, he and Cloud call for a strategy meeting to decide - based on the manikin's memories - on the best way to stop Sephiroth. Vaan heeds the call to the meeting. When Ignis reaffirms Zack's narrative based on earlier intelligence he had heard from Vayne, Vaan becomes very upset and demands that Ignis explain why he did not disclose that Vayne had been his informant all this time. Ignis counters Vaan, explaining that he wasn't sure if the Vayne he met was a fake, and stating that he wanted to confirm his intelligence before sharing it. Furthermore, Ignis suggests that he was trying to avoid the needless ire of people like Vaan, who did not trust Vayne enough even to hear him out. Vaan believes Ignis is insinuating that he is immature and becomes even more upset before Edgar refocuses the meeting on the task at hand.
