So, we all know the classic RPG is a game chock-full of cryptic features, items, and otherwise unexplained phenomenon.

My initial question lies with a line of text found in one of the environments on a sign.

As a precursor, lets look back at Corel Prison. Keen eyes remember a ShinRa billboard with the text "Pyck" spraypainted over it as graffiti. Pyck? Look closer. Obviously this was originally our fabled four-letter curse word which was modified for obvious reasons; at least in the U.S. adaptation of the game.

Now here is one I can't figure out. In the popular area Speed Square the strange word "Pavkivy" is present right above the electronic board where the scores pop up, viewed here at 10:25. What the hell could this mean?

As Barret would say: "This game 'jes full of surprises".

Feel free to discuss other unexplained FF7 mysteries here as well.

I know what the Speed Square one is: it's a Greek transliteration. Rho, Alpha, Nu, Kappa, Iota, Nu, Gamma. When you read it, it's "Ranking."
