I have to say I disagree. Primarily due to the Ultimania information given about Soulcage but also because Soulcage seems unable to even consider reasoning with mortals whilst Necron does.
As for Sephiroth7734's reasoning as to why the world was covered in mist, that was actually the result of Kuja opening the doorway to Memoria. Since Memoria is made of the memories of all living things he needed to access souls from both crystals (Terra's crystal still existed due to being fused with Gaia's) in order to create the path to the original crystal which he would destroy and therefore take out all of existence with. Also Terra's attempt at assimilating Gaia had begun due to Kuja successfully killing enough people over the course of the game for Terra's cycle of souls to be strong enough to dominate Gaia's causing the Iifa Tree to have a violent reaction. The mist would've been spewed out as a side effect of said reaction.
Yeah, I kind of overthought FFIX's plot when it came to research for my giant Kuja analysis.
