Genesis is cured of his degradation by the Goddess Materia and is taken away to Deepground. Unwilling to join the organization, Genesis isolated himself in a cavern underneath Midgar. Shelke Rui of Deepground survived the organization's destruction after defecting to the WRO, and as one of the Tsviets, carries Genesis's cells. Weiss also carries Genesis's cells, but his fate is uncertain as Genesis is seen carrying his body away after awakening from his slumber. Angeal perished, and just prior to the events of Final Fantasy VII, Lazard and the final Angeal Copy follow suit, leaving the offspring of Genesis as the only known survivors of Project G and Deepground.
