Ms. Folia is a minor character in Final Fantasy VII Remake. She is a teacher at the Leaf House orphanage in the Sector 5 slums by day, and a honeygirl dancer at the Honeybee Inn by night.
History[]
Ms. Folia had childhood dreams of becoming a professional dancer.[2] She took an interest in teaching and was mentored by Biggs, who taught her everything he knew.[3]
In "Budding Bodyguard", Ms. Folia could be found at the Leaf House orphanage and commissioned Cloud and Aerith to round up the patrolling children as they were late for their lesson, commencing "Kids on Patrol". Once the children were accounted for and the Hedgehog Pie King was eliminated, she thanked the two. She led the students inside for their lesson and assigned a special task due that day. Aerith asked if Folia knew all the students' secrets, who commented on how active they were and her reasons for teaching, praising Biggs's mentoring.[3]
Ms. Folia as a honeygirl.
After the lesson concluded, Ms. Folia exclaimed she lost track of the time, excused herself to "fulfill a dream", and thanked Cloud and Aerith once more. When the two traveled to Wall Market later that night in "The Town That Never Sleeps", they encountered Ms. Folia as a honeygirl on break behind the Honeybee Inn. She was surprised to see them but acted offended, believing they were digging into her "personal affairs". Ms. Folia spoke of her childhood dreams of becoming a dancer, performing nightly, and asked Cloud and Aerith not to tell her students.[2]
After the Sector 7 plate collapsed, during "In Search of Hope", a stressed Ms. Folia asked for Cloud, Tifa, and Barret to find the missing patrolling children again, commencing "Missing Children". Barret comforted her, told her not to worry, and received thanks. The party found the kids and they returned to Ms. Folia at the Leaf House.[4]
