Now your task is simply to try and track down Sephiroth for killing Aeris mostly but also for the same things as before the Aeris incident. First, you should go rest in the house that you rested in before you went to find Aeris down the stairs. Then, go to the north west where you saw Sephiroth heading in cloud’s mind. Pick up the Viper Halberd and jump up the spike stairway on the tall shell that you will see. You'll have to kind of wiggle around a little up on top to figure out how to get to the passage leading west it might take awhile though . When you do get there, you'll be faced with a large cave with a whole bunch of vertical passages you can go up and down. This little maze isn't too hard to figure out with a little doubling-back and so forth so just explore it for treasures. When you get to the far left passage (it kind of looks like a big ladder or trench), go down first it. Yes, it looks like there's nothing down there at first, but if you check it out, you'll find the Magic Plus materia hidden down behind the rocks which will help you a lot this early in the game. Now go up and right, then up, and you'll find yourself in an icy, frozen, wasteland. Make your way around the mountains and northeast to Icicle Village, a small town with some important clues about what has happened in the past. First, buy yourself some new weapons for battling use, since those weaker double-AP weapons you may have been using up until now won't really cut it anymore because the enemy’s now are much stronger. Also stock up on any healing supplies you need this would be a good idea even if you think you have a good amount of them, then explore the town to your heart’s content. There's an X-Potion on the top floor of the inn, and the upper left house contains some interesting and tantalizing storyline information that you will need. Don't forget to watch all the videos in the lab because they help you better understand what happened in the past. When you're pretty much finished here, go talk to the guy wandering around in the back of the screen. You can chat with him and let him be nice to you, but in order to move the story along, you'll have to try and ignore his warnings. At that point, Shinra will show up, led by none other than Elena the Turk she is really annoying now. It's simple to dodge her wussy punch and watch her roll out of town she is a weak person huh?. However, Icicle Village is Shinra territory now, so you better find a way out of here soon as possible. Go talk to the kid with the snowboard at the front part of the village He'll let you borrow it, since he's not going to be using it for a while. Make sure you get the map out of the house just to the right of the kid that gave you the board before you leave or you will be sorry in a little while. Then head for the slopes, strap on your snowboard, and get set for a fun little mini-game. Don't worry about doing so well save that for the Gold Saucer when you will get GP points for it. For now, just have fun and get the hang of it so that you can do well later.
